    Tired of HOB overflow

    How precisely does this work? The pipe on the emergency side has to be higher than the baffle to work, right?

    Tired of HOB overflow

    It's mainly the bulkheads and slip-slip design of it that is a problem, not the tube itself. My floor flooded because of the clog in my stockman...

    Tired of HOB overflow

    The first one I did and it cracked. The second one leaks down the threads from the inside of the nut. I got the bulkhead from Eshopps.

    Woke up (at 4 AM) to water on the floor

    I only have 30 gallons of water volume, but maybe my pump is too big for the system. But I do like the idea of the emergency drain.

    Woke up (at 4 AM) to water on the floor

    In my case it would be a small snail. I have a stockman pipe. It's essentially covered/capped PVC tube with small holes drilled in it under the lip.

    I have a valve and I can certainly throttle it back (although it seems to catch bubbles if not fully open). It's an Eshopps 75 gallon overflow. I...

    That was my other thought besides algae. It wasn't an issue from April to August. It has been the last few weeks.
