great idea! Done 😄
What core system is this ?
It's the core system at our warehouse. Come by and check it out!
Love the video. It seems you didn’t back fill the hole with River run gravel as most do?
Thank you! That's not standard for our industry. We're looking for the highest airflow possible, so we don't want to fill it with airflow obstructions.
I moved into my house and got a radon test done. Long story short they installed a radon mitigation system connecting to my sump pump and sealing it. Since then
I noticed a ton of water pouring into my sump pump pit. My pump would run every 1 to 3 min. Today I got curios if I could raise the float switch to try to balance out the water level or make it so it didn't run so often. The radon installers cut a 3" hole in the lid and silicone
a clear plexiglass piece over it. I removed that cover to watch the float switch. 5 min went by and still it wouldn't pump. Eventually by shear luck I noticed that as that
hole got smaller water started running fast into the pump. I then covered the hole again and the water was gushing in.. then lifted it up and the water stopped. It's
now been 20 min and my pump hasn't ran, Why is the radon system sucking water into my sump pump pit? When I remove this little sight glass the u
shaped device showing suction still shows a negative suction. Is this OK to leave it like this? With the cover off? I don't want my pumps running so often especially if it's not needed.
I have since resealed the put cover till I know more. Any advice would help.
Brent with PDS here: I've not heard of this situation before. Most radon fans can create 1-3" of water suction (compared to a shop vac which is 30"+; it's relatively little). I would recommend having your system serviced by a sump professional or calling the radon mitigator that installed your system to inspect it. There's a chance the radon fan is drawing water in that was trapped somewhere in your interior drain, but that would mean it was installed improperly, as it should drain to the sump pit naturally. Perhaps the radon fan is pulling a valve or float up and that is causing the pump to malfunction. Strange situation, get a pro out there.
@7:54: No backfill (e.g., pea gravel)?! Just an empty hole?
@0:57: "Enjoy"? Wow. That's some sales talk. :)
@6:24: Oh, my friend, do yourself a favor and pre-filter all of that dirt with something like a Dustopper. Good lord.
