Serpentine Sump Baffle?

Kengar · 03/18/2017, 02:26 PM

Has anyone ever seen/made a baffle (insert, perhaps) for sump that goes back and forth in zigzag fashion (like line for roller coaster) as well as having over/under walls? Reason being is that it would increase flow distance over which microbubbles can rise out of the water. If so, available commercially anywhere?

Thanks.

A under/over will take care of microbubbles unless your flow is high enough that it will drag the bubbles under.
