Urgent: Overflow leak.. Advise required.

[JDigital]

My understanding is that because there is a leak, the pressure (and thus water level) between the 2 sections will equalize.

This is all presuming that a power outage occurs and the Display drains to the lowest lip of the return bulkheads which is the same height as the top of my main drain in the leaky overflow, of which the overflow would drain to.. thus, same water level in each..

Correct???

Your overflow water level will never get higher then you display but it will keep draining until the water level is below the shortest pipe in the overflow & display.

Thanks Grizz.. I guess I got some modifications to my standpipe to make tonight.
