![]() All the bulkheads are on the same horizontal line.
Both the siphon and sec drains have turned down elbows at the same level but because air is allowed the enter the sec and water does not flow until the water line is up to the bulkhead, the sec is used to control the water level in the overflow box. The emerg drain elbow is turned up and above the water level in the overflow box.

Isn't it the siphon with the gate valve that controlls the water level in the overflow? That has been my experience. Once it gets to full siphon, I can tune it a little: open it a bit more to carry a bit more flow, or close it a bit to flow a bit less, changing the water level in the overflow. Tom |

![]() I have quick question about the bean animal aswell. Mine is up and running, but when I start it up it will not get a full siphon unless I pull the elbow out, and allow it to get the full siphon. Once it has a full siphon I can put the elbow back in and it runs fine.
I have also let it sit for a good 20 mins with no siphon started. Sorry for the hijack. |
