I am having the hardest time getting the flow into my sump to be correct. The issue I am having is that even with my pump at the lowest setting, there is still so much flow. And at the lowest setting the GPH is pretty low (400ish). The tank is a ProStar 90, with 65 display. The only way I have been able to get the flow right is by closing the gate valve on the drain 1/4 turn. This allows me to have the pump at the GPH I want, and none of the noise or crazy flow.
There seems to be varying opinions on adjusting the gate valve. The obvious con being it may clog easier. I am more than open to suggestions on how better to achieve proper flow, or if closing the valve is OK. Here's a video of the flow if I keep the valve fully open.
Thanks in advance.
