Think I found the problem. No leaks in the DT. Added some water to the sump, no leaks there. Ran the system and noticed the rim of my filter sock,...
Yeah, carpet was pretty squishy :)
Ehh, I don't think back siphon explains it. Just sitting here at work, I'm thinking there may be a leak in one of the seams of the sump. I'm going to...
But I really won't get to look for answers until I get home. My wife says the water levels haven't changed since this morning. Thank you so much for...
