What’s Wrong Sump Lots
What's wrong with this picture?
Notice the open PVC tube at the top of the sump near 12 o'clock: any leaks would go right out he sump side wall. Also the sump sensor (9 o'clock) is not positioned up and down so it may not trip and alert the operator in the first place.
Great photo for What’s Wrong!
Typo in first sentence where “he” should be “the”.
Off the top of my head… there are other obvious issues: the FXIV LLD is not installed in the LD port of the RJ pump head leaving portions of the pressurized piping unmonitored for catastrophic leak rate with the sump sensor not on the bottom (sensor is just a 2-wire float switch without positive shutoff capabilities inappropriately installed at an angle well off the sump bottom zip-tied to the copper vent tubing), the observation tubing (small green tube) is plugged with test boot clamps tight sealing off the piping interstice (albeit interstitial monitoring may not be required with this older installation of Environ piping), entry boots on conduit appear compromised, conduit is severely corroded, intrinsic terminal box is open with sensor termination connections exposed (if not enclosed should be isolated with gel packs).
Hi John. First, thanks so much for dissecting so carefully the slide. You found more than I did. Free training on us if you ever need it. 🙂
