Re: DIY Sump
Id depends on how high you want to pump the water, This pump has a max output of 740 GPH at level ground. Ask the seller what the GPH at what ever height you intent to pump the water to.
Im setting up my own little sump and Im buying a 530 GPH powerhead, but at 3.5 feet it will only pump 317 GPH. Make sure you get big enough pipes for it! Good luck :D |
