Hi all,
First time using a bean animal overflow and i'm having some issues! I have set it up almost exactly as per the below diagram from Beananimals website except I only have a ball valve on the main drain and not on the open channel or emergency.
The issue I'm having is that the open channel is currently taking all of the flow and aspirating a lot of air with it. I think I may have messed up as the main drain and the open channel pipes are at the same height and they are downturned sitting just above the bottom of the overflow so there is little I can do to tweak this. I've used herbie style overflows many times and in retrospect it seems pretty obvious that the open channel inlet should be higher than the main drain but that doesn't appear to be the case in the images below.
Am I missing something or is the only solution to try and make the open channel inlet higher?
Thanks in advance.
