I have a ball valve on it now, but had already decide I had to change it out for gate valves.... I will also have to raise the height of the drain pipes in the tank. When I get a full syphon, the water level is about 1-1 1/2 " lower then I want.
Thanks, I wasn't sure I wanted the pipe at full syphon, but I guess it makes sense for water turn over.
