1. Make a second cut in the discharge pipe at the pencil mark
made in Step 1 and set the cut-off piece of discharge pipe
aside. See Figure 5.
2. Wrap the threads of the close nipple counterclockwise with
2 turns of PTFE pipe thread sealant tape and set aside.
NOTE: There must be a check valve installed in the Primary
Sump Pump discharge between the tee and the Primary
Sump Pump. This will prevent recirculation into the
Primary Pump when the Back Up Sump Pump comes on.
See Figure 5.
