Water fall sound

Thanks!! I'll check that out when I get home tonight. Just ran by the house for a minute and don't have time now. Of course I couldn't help checking the computer to see if there were any responses or not.

My sump is bubbling and burping a lot. (Must be a male system ;D)

The bigger the hole, the faster is drains. You don't want the overflow box to drain out below the curve before the water can flows into the overflow.

Thank ya, thank ya, thank ya! I put my finger over the hole and it made some other noises. I put my finger over it and held it there several times for a few seconds. It seems to have quitened down and has definately calmed down in the sump. Before doing so I looked at the sump and my water level was getting higher. Thats why I went on ahead and did as you suggested before going back to the office. I'll get a pipe cleaner or something so I can be sure its good and clean. We'll see if it starts back up when I get home tonight. Hopefully that will have taken care of it.

Thanks again!

I got mad waterfall sound.Just got my sump going the other day and holy crap i did not realize that the overflow would make that noise.
So now i am going to mod it with that durso thingamabob.

it sounds like my bath tub is filling even as i type this....lol

 

Here's a link on my site to a pic of a muffler I built for my overflow (weir style overflow) it could be adapted to a durso by making the pipe longer:
