jamal February 13, 2015 Share February 13, 2015 i still have my 180 gal up and if you are facing it i have a 125 gal "fuge to its right. my boiler/waterheater sit between the two tanks. before i had a dart pump water over and then gravity feed back. now that the wife has decided that that will not work anymore i cant gravity feed. would the alternative be to put another dart or similar pump to bring the water back over from the fuge back to the sump now that gravity is no longer an option? does anyone need clarification on what i tried to convey here?

John Ford February 13, 2015 Share February 13, 2015 In my opinion- You will never match the flow and cause a flood. Even if you use float switches to shut one pump off if it was faster than the other pump you WILL have a flood eventually. Dont do it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If one pump failed, you will have a flood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Origami February 13, 2015 Share February 13, 2015 Is there a technical reason (something other than "the wife has decided") why the gravity feed won't work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamal February 14, 2015 Author Share February 14, 2015 well the return pipes are running in the door way where the boiler is. so when the repair guys come and i am not home it is an issue with access. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zygote2k February 14, 2015 Share February 14, 2015 ditch the fuge altogether and use a sump with skimmer and BP's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
