    Again, really clean looking! On the apex module, the rule for all electronics that are misbehaving is " when in doubt, quit out". Basically a reboot...

    Just fyi, you don't need to prime pvc glue or use purple. The color is for jobsite inspections. Industrial clear is more than strong enough and you don't leave the purple goop all over. Just my .02.
    Tank looks awesome, can't wait for more updates.

    Can’t wait to see the “power outage” test, and that tense moment of the water settling into the sump.
    Love the different color pipe to go with the RWB theme.
    Lastly how come you use ball valves not a gate valves, for your drain?

    Awesome stuff! I watched a video from MACNA about plumbing and they suggest using a silicon grease instead of teflon tape. Supposed to be a better seal and makes it easy to take back off if you need to. Just FYI.

    A couple of things. One, that overflow looks like a Bean Animal Overflow, other than the second stand pipe doesn't have a drilled out safety tube. Did you glue the stand pipes to the sump drain bulkheads? Also, are the values on the sump bulkheads closed or open in the picture. Thanks.

    How do you feel about corner flo style tanks? My buddy has a 180 gallon with corner overflow? $700 with stand.

      It'll end up getting on your nerves.Spend the money and buy a new tank with a center or drill one yourself

    What did you do for that even flow to come out of 2 return lines?

    • @FishOfHex
      @FishOfHex  7 років тому

      used a ball valve above the check valve shown in this video to add back pressure to the other side

    How do you like the H2Overflow? I'm deciding between that or the Synergy overflow.
