Re: how to?

Hi stu,when i glass around bottom drains, if it is the type with a loose flange, i sandwich the glass between it as if it were a liner. if you do this before you do all the base you can (greentrim )the waste and make a nice neat job.

Re: Technical Question

Surely it must depend on tonnage of water on bottom drain. The greater the depth( head) of water the greater the pressure , although there must be a maximum .I drained my 5000Galls in less than an hour.john

Hi Jason the pics are just the job.I would reccomend putting in another drain.One off the grp oneswith a wide flange, fix with sealant and self tappers.Avenue fish do one that would do the job.
