Welcome to our forum.
Thanks for the recommendations. Â As far as siphoning, it doesn't seem like it would work much better than using the outlet and letting the water free flow. Â It seems to be coming out at about the rate that a siphon would, IMHO.
Actually from a .75 hose to a 1.5 is a 4x increase. Â From a .5 hose it's 9x.
Dang Chas, I wish you would have posted that earlier! Â I just finished my drain and fill! Â
I think Chas is on to something. That method costs peanuts to implement.
