Got pics of your dorso or stockman setup?

My corner return is 1.5 inches. I cannot fit a Dorso 1.5 inch into the space. Should I just go with the stockman setup? Or should I just reduce the size to 1.25 or even 1 inch to fit it in there? Thanks!

Yea that's why I'd rather just leave it at 1.5inches. I guess the stockman works fine? Do I just make it like this one?

you may need to modify the actual fittings to fit in the overflow box.

I hacked up the elbow and 3 way split with a nice saw. no need to glue it.
 
Im sure u can do it. The 90 degree fitting on here is a 3/4 that went inside a 1' SCH40 PVC, I have to silicone it in since its so small....Just dont reduce it youll get the gurgling action still if you reduce it to much....The hardest part was getting the perfect size hole on the endcap...Start off with 1/16 hole and work your way up untill their is no noise from the drain..

Get a 90 degree fitting cut where it bends, silicone in only the piece that is needed to reduce noise...Ill try and get a picture of what I mean...

Good Luck

Your 1.5in will fit just fine. You can't see mine all the way because of the other PVC, but you can see at the bottom how I joined 2 45's to make the new angle.

I just made a 1.25inch dorso. Looks really good. Thanks for the pic Tiger, that's exactly how I made mine fit.

You can use a street ell 90 instead of a regular one, and trim both the Tee and the 90. They don't need to be that tight. That is how I fit mine in.

Golfish - could you make me one, I will pay.

I need one too, I have to putt pads inside the overflow to slow down the water.

Thanks
