We're trying to get the tank/sump plumbing done tonight and have roadblock--can anyone help?
We're using a megaflow pipe kit, the "new" kind. Here's the problem: what attaches to the bottom threads of the bulkhead--the part that sticks out under the tank? We were just at Home Depot and they couldn't help us find anything that would work--as the bulkhead seems to be ABS we can't glue a regular PVC coupling to it as the glue won't bond. At least that's what the clerks told us.
So: what makes the bulkhead seal to the PVC pipe?
If anyone knows and can explain in tiny words that my non-plumbing-adept brain can understand, I would be very appreciative!
