How many gaskets / orings are suppose to come with this overflow box? Mine only came with one that i used on the inside of the tank. However im weary about inside the box not having an additional gasket before the nut. Does this unit really only come with a single gasket?

I watched the unboxing video on Eshopp's website and it looks like there's only the single gasket/O-ring that's used on the connection to the tank.

Nice overflow box though!

One gasket between the internal over flow and the glass on the tank. If you look inside the internal over flow there should be another gasket on the bulkhead

Ok thanks for the reassurance guys! It’s a nice overflow for sure but sadly I do not have my system fully plumbed yet.
Im trying to figure out a way to attach pvc to the drains w/o bonding it as that would make disassembly a pain and ruin the drain bulkheads in the process.
Anyone have experience with this? I was thinking like silicon and then a rubber slip with pipe clamps overtop.

Use unions. Even if you remove the over flow u can reuse it
