Yes -- their sumps are all glass. All of the plumbing comes with the set-ups as well. He has some pieces I don't on mine, but his is a much larger system so I assume it's all what was included. Although I want to know what that clear piece is as well. Never seen one of those, but what an awesome idea.
That's a check valve but I think that's going to be an issue.

The clear piece is the gate valve...

Did all that plumbing come with it? I don’t recognize those valves. Are the smaller ones on the manifold ball or gate valves?

Also that sump looks like it’s all glass. Is it?
The 2 red extra valves are manifolds...

I'm setting it up in Morgan Hill. House still empty -just a tank inside lol. Still waiting for furnitures, setting up school and daycare for kids. Over a month now.. While waiting, I'm trying to do some stuff to get the tank started.[emoji846]

Agree. I wish I had taken a picture of all the growths inside my pipes when I tweaked the plumbing.
Relying on check valves is risky.

If you’re relying on the check valve then I agree but I don’t think the volume of the overflow box is very much. I don’t think it would overflow the sump. The check valve is just a nicity and not a necessity then.

Then why plumb it in if it does nothing or if it fails why bother to install it.
