Hello all. I have my 110.4 WaterBox running and cycling. Just a couple things I can’t find help with. I see with the overflow the sweet spot is with the tank water level being just below the emergency drain in the overflow, is it is a simple as just draining water from my display as it is currently over the emergency drain? Also I have made adjustments with the gate valve and it is constantly making a noise like a bath drain when it starts to take in some air with the water draining so quickly, is that normal? Even with that I am getting some gurgling which I’m not sure is my emergency drain or main drain. Thanks.

I find that the quietest is when I run the water in the overflow right at the very edge of the emergency overflow, such that an occasional trickle goes down every now and then.
My water level is right above the emergency overflow do I simply drain water from the display tank to lower it ?

Just slightly open the valve on your main overflow. Wait a minute or so, then open a bit more or close as needed.
