I went out and bought some spaflex the other day to make a drainhose from my overflow to my sump.
My overflow connection and sump connection both are slip connectors. Yesterday I put the spaflex in both slip connections and noticed that the connection is not tight at all. From the overflow the spaflex actually falls out.
Do you guys have any suggestions on what I can do here? I want to be able to remove this hose later, so I don't want to be stuck with the spaflex physically attached to my overflow. I was thinking I could get a slip to slip connector (think its called a coupler), glue the spaflex to one end of the slip then just attach the other end to the overflow. Would this work? This is just a drain so there is actually little pressure.
If I do this my concern now is the coupler getting stuck, if this works would some silicon lubricant help here?
