well the other day i was switching out my sump. I turned off my return pump and all the water from the main tank reversed flow down through the return tube and out my return pump. Lets say i had about 5-10 gallons of water on my floor. luckily the tank is on marble and not carpet.
I was reading this article but had a question.
If i drill a hole on the side of the pump nozzle would I lose gph?
If sump levels evaporated below the drilled water nozzle the water will spray every where and create a mess?
I don't see how drilling a hole on the pump nozzle will help prevent back flow. Wouldn't water just flow out of the drilled hole resulting in a flooded sump? I just don't know the reason why this would work.
Thanks
