Help with Overflow
How high is the water level supposed to be in the AGA overflow boxes? How high do I position the PVC pipe that sucks the water down to the sump? There is a hole on the top of it, is that so a suction is not created? If so, then that part should be exposed to the air and not be underwater, right? Thanks.

I keep the water in my sump at a comfortable level above my pump. You don't want it too high though. If the power goes out you don't want you're sump overflowing. When you establish the level you want it at. Place a sharpie mark on it where the maximum amt of water should be and the minimum.
