Tiny little ½ drain holes which constantly get plugged up and overflow running water all over the base and floor. Why these aren't larger is beyond me. Chris Dorn

Is it drained through the pump casing?

I'm assuming that's taken care of from the casing drain on the pump? Brian Harris, CET BVS Systems Inc. bvssystemsinc.com<http://bvssystemsinc.com/> Phone: 704.896.9989 Fax: 704.896.1935
