I am taking my sump out of service and I need to know how to cap off the overflow boxes. Has anyone ever done this before or know how to do this. Thanks

Bulkhead plugs.

Ok thanks.

Can I get the plugs at Lowes?

 

[blert]

Should be. They are just PVC plugs. If your bulkheads are threaded then get threaded plugs and wrap the threads with plumber's tape. If they are not threaded then you must glue them in.

Thanks for your help. i have a couple more questions.

Do you plug both the intake and the outtake holes? And, do you plug the top and the bottom of the tank?
