    Hello, I have 2 thru holes in my sump and would like to really make sure they don't leak.

    Do you mean holes that have been drilled for bulkheads or something?
    If so you can put a bulkead in there with a threaded or slip cap on one side then you should be water tight.

    <P>Yes, and they have the bulkheads threaded in already, I was just wondering if there was anything extra I could do to ensure it's watertightness because while I'm not getting dripping I get some extra condensation around that area..</P>
