What size are the overflow drains? Red Sea drains have a secondary/emergency drain that is smaller than the primary. That seems like a bad backup.
Why is that?Wow, sounds like WaterBox either intentionally make misleading claims, and if not why making the claims without the facts. I'd be a bit nervous to purchase from them.
But obviously it’s still safer but yes it’s not incredibly importantThe secondary drain being slightly smaller is only an issue if your maxing out the flow of the larger main drain. Most people don't run there main siphon maxed out as it's adjusted much lower. Unless your considering maxing out the flow of the main drain the difference between the two sizes doesn't really matter
Definitely have gone cheaper on there larger models which is good. They still post false information about there systems and products to this day which rubs some people the wrong way, myself included. For me, I'll pay the extra $300 for a company I can take at face value and has a solid reputation with years upon years of excellent customer service to back it up. But once again I'm not saying Waterbox produces a bad product and the only REAL issue I see with the design of the 190.5 is the manifold off the return. There design is missing a key piece in order to make the manifold work properly and that is a valve, ideally a gate valve, plumbed after the T to the manifold. This produces enough back pressure to send flow towards the manifold. It's a pretty important piece that should not have been over looked. Now in order to make there manifold work properly you have to go out and purchase and plumb another valve in. Not a huge deal but something you need to know in advance
However with both of these companies I would prefer a option that doesn’t have a sump that I don’t want. Just get me piping into the stand and let me take it from there.
