Help with my tank plumbing diagram

[Seriak]

Yeah it looks good. I definitely wouldn't tie the two drain lines together before they enter the sump as previously mentioned. I would have separate drains straight to the sump. I also prefer at least two drains per tank for backup so I would want another one on your main tank, but if everything is dry walled you might have to live with what you have.

But the tank downstairs isn't plumbed to the drain from upstairs yet right? if no, run a seperate line.

Do NOT rely on check valves at all!!!! They will cet encrusted with worms or algae and will not seal when you need them. Been there, Had that! A look inside any pipe thats had flow in it for 1+ years reveals all sorts.

Have you seen the size of this guy's sump? I doubt he needs to rely on check valves but they are nice to have.

Looks good man, separate drains and you're good to go, plumb that ****

I will have a quick connect on both end of the check valve and it is clear check valve so i can pretty much see what is insed. I can take it out and wash it regularly. Thanks for raise a good point tho

Thanks Steve, it is time heh. Never understand why you get things done so fast and I am at my 110% speed
