Yeah I knew it had to be below water for complete silence but my thought process was, "how loud can it be if it's not?" Turns out really freaking loud lol. I never used filter socks before but everyone keeps telling me they're amazing as long as I change them out or clean them as neededYes, the drain in the sock needs to be underwater. Simply friction fit a length of pipe that can easily be removed when you need to take out the sock.
It's not the best picture because of the tight space, but here is my setup with the pipe pulled out to ease getting the sock out.
That's why you typically have the main drain submersed and the emergency drain (the one with the stand pipe in the overflow) above the water. Specifically so that if/when the main drain backs up, you hear the water splashing into the sump and it lets you know something's going on.Yeah I knew it had to be below water for complete silence but my thought process was, "how loud can it be if it's not?"
