PVC Overflow Drain Depth Please?

[JesterGrin_1]

I am going to use 1 1/2" PVC for the PVC Overflow. I also got a 1 1/2 to 3" Bell. How deep under the water line should I make it?

Thank You.

Nobody has a clue?

I was thinking 1" below the water line?

i dont think it matters, as long as it stays submerged. most of the pics i have seen show it deeper than 1"

Thank You Ace it seems as if you are still very active here with some helpful information. Congrats

And by the way I went back to Lowe's and found what looks like a green cone drain that is 4" around and about 3 to 4" tall. Which looks like it would be a great way to go to keep Critters out of the drain. . But I will need an adapter of which they will not have in stock till tomorrow darn it. But that is okay as it is painted and drying lol.

On a Further Note FYI Krylon Fusion is no longer carried by Lowe's or Home Depot as I was informed it is now an exclusive product of Walmart.

yep, but lowes carries another brand of plastic paint that works just as well.

Well darn it the Sales person at the paint area did not mention it at either store when I asked for the Krylon Fusion for Plastic. It would have saved me some time and travel if they knew there products darn it.

So May I ask what is it called lol.
