I closed my return pumps to look for something in my rockwork and I noticed my sump was overflowing!!!
Thank goodness I decided to close my return pumps today because imagine if my returns went out while I was away!!!
I use 2 return pumps, and they both were stammering HARD when I closed them! They both have check values that were vibrating hard. The water seems to be coming out from the return pumps because if I open the check valve to allow air in and then close the retighten it, the stammering and flooding stops.
I don’t know how to explain it well, but someone please tell me what’s going on. I can’t have my sump and tank overflow like this. I went on a ladder and notice my whole floor was getting soaked FAST.
Here are my return pumps with the check valves.
I’ve had these check valves for 2 years. They stammered before when I closed them, but it was never this hard nor has it flooded like this. I need a solution asap because if my tank decides to power out it will flood on the floor.
