I'm in the basement and the city line for sewer is on the other side, and I need to put in a sink. I saw on one thread a guy ran the pipe from a cabinet that had a sump pump under it with a sink?

If you go to lowes or menards they have basement kits for sinks showers and toilets that at below the sewer hook ups for basements. Thats probably your best bet.

Ya grumpy it would only have to have a 4ft vertical. and a 10ft horizontal run. I will stop by there today. thanks

nitrox36 · Feb 13, 2013

Gimmito's Build has schedule 80, i think that would be a good idea but i need to find a place that is cheaper than lowes and home depot..

I CANT WAAIT for my stand friday lol, then i can frame in that side as well. pins and needles, im driving my wife crazy... also still waiting on the roofing estimate today...not happy

nytegti · Feb 13, 2013

haha just breathe! the roofing estimate will be more than you expect, get multiple estimates & go from there. DON'T PICK THE CHEAPEST GUY! it's your roof, do it right just like your tank.

grats on the stand, setting up is always the most exciting part(and the most expensive)

chadderboxx · Feb 14, 2013

Tomorrow is the big day. You going to be able to sleep tonight? Lol

nitrox36 · Feb 14, 2013

I know some people don't like ASM Skimmers, but i got a big one that does a great job. I went to a few stores and saw what they used on their big systems.I am confidant that this will be great in the new system.

The ASM skimmer works good w/ a different pump, the stock sedra pumps are not very efficient and have a few reliability issues. I upgraded mine to a bubbleblaster pump. It uses 1/2 the power and the foam is just as good- (if not better) than when I ran the sedras.
