Drain pipe diffusor.
I need something to slow down the water entering the sump to prevent micro bubbles. I have a 1.5" drain pipe going into my sump. Currently I tie a filter sock on it but it's annoying to change it.
I don't have enough room for the hanging sock as sold by some dealers. anyone have sugguestions? my problem is the bubbles pop and make for a lot of salt creep. I have a durso setup from the top and changing it to another is not an option. thanks. |

Maybe try slipping a square of foam around the bottom of the pipe at the water line. Might stop the popping bubbles.

Is your drain submerged in your sump ?
If so, what about a piece of acrylic with a hole cut out for your drain, to block the bubbles ... This is my main drain ( submerged ) and emerg ( with a trickle showing ) If you are sucking air down your Durso I can't be much help |

salt creap
defiantly submerge your drain 1" into the water and i switched my durso to a stockman-takes up less room.

I like the looks of these designs:
