Evening everyone
I'm looking to take some vibration out of my return line from my sump back up to the tank. It's currently hard plumbed with 1.5" PVC all the way up. I'm lifting directly up from a basement sump to a first floor DT. The PVC is supported by Holdrite insulated clamps in 3 locations. I believe the main source of vibration is the downwards pressure of the pipe itself pressing the pump downward into the bottom glass of the sump. Ideally I think I'd like to go with a short section of flexible hose, but I've not found anything that's even remotely flexible. Home Depot vinyl in 1.5" may as well be as rigid as PVC. Braided vinyl obviously that much worse. BRS sells silicone but only up to 1".
Anyone have a recommendation?
