So one of the gambles I took with the Eshopps sump was how my plumbing was going to work.
As you can see in the picture 1 below, I had to cut out some acrylic to accommodate my plumbing as it was offset a bit from the sumps bulkhead.
I used 1" PVC for the 3 Bean Animal drains. The sump came with some flex line, so I cut it in half and am using it for the drops of the 2nd and 3rd drains below the unions.
A note on the Gate Valve, I purchased a decent quality spears valve. Eshopps does sell a ball valve kit, but it's too expensive IMO, better to invest in one good gate valve and forget the rest.
Picture 2 shows the template I made for the router, picture 3 is the end result.
Main drain will be on the left, the second drain enters the filter sock area, the third lands in the return pump section at the right.
