Here is what we have: The water level is about 1 inch below the teeth of both overflows. One drain pipe has an elbow at the top with a hole in it (on the side). The other drain pipe is just an open pipe without a top of any kind. The open pipe stands about an inch higher than the other pipe but the water seems to be flowing into the pipes at the same level being that the water enters the open pipe right at the top and the water in the elbow is full up to the last 1/2 (top( of the elbow. If I cut the other pipe down (which I have the room) about an inch, would that hel?. Looks like that was the way it was befor we bought it. The problem is we have water coming down the front and back (very little but it leaves the water stain as well as the salt residue). This is worse with the top water gets more movement than usual, even when it is a small amout. This was never an issue with the prior owners. We did change the motor out. We have an 1850 gph pump that replaced a 1270 gph. However, the sump is built and had 2 external pumps, each with a ball valve. I was told that both running together was too much for the over flows. I cannot slow the internal pump we have now. However, I just bought a part and have fixed the old pump.
It seems to me the issue may be 1 pipe being higher than the other (I guess). I just didn't want to pull it out if I didn't have to.
What "T" are y'all talking about and what is it for?
I hope it makes sence, especially since y'all can't see what I'm talking about.
