Minimun linear overflow size?
When using the drain/overflow size at the homepage what does the minimum linear overflow size mean. I did a formula far a 1350gph pump and got 1.52 drain size and 20'' linear overflow size. Would this mean an overflow box needs to have a total of 20'' on the 3 sides of a normal overflow box?

yes, you got it right .....
so like 5" on sides and 10" wide ... or you can put it in corner with 10" on each side or 5" x15" .... and so on. teeth are not included !!! they account for almost half the area. |
