There was no room any where except where I drilled.
Could you mark on the picture where it should be. | |

The return part is entirely in the water.
If I drilled in the elbow it would spray all over, and cause microbubbles. | |

If I drill a hole that's in the water it's not going to break the suction. The water level in the tank is always the same.
I would only get microbubbles if I drilled the elbow, I had a leak in it and it was causing bubbles, I fixed the leak and stopped the bubbles.
If the elbow already had a seep hole, it wasn't working. | |

Spoke with Rochelle at Allglass tech services at (414) 421-9670 She verified that the Anti-syphon is predrilled in the elbow already. She even was so kind as to go pull one from a box and verify for me seeing as I am at work and couldnt look at mine at home. AllGlass doesnt have a picture that shows this but after installing bunch of these I have not seen one that doesnt have it right where I said it was | |

Mine didn't have one. If it did it didn't work, I never got a break in the suction when I powered off.
Sounds like they didn't give me the right elbow. | |
