Overflow question

Any suggestions on how I can raise the water level on my overflow. I have a dual overflow and one is perfect and this one isn't.

Hard to tell from the pic, but is it a durso standpipe? If so, you can cut the pipe, and lengthen it using an additional section of pipe and unions until you have roughly a 1" water drop. Is the drain pipe in your other overflow longer than the one in the pic?

They are both the same size pipes on both overflows. They drain to different sections into my sump

Raise the durso = raise the water level.

What does your other overflow look like? Have you thought about a herbie?

+1 if you raise the overflow it will raise the water level just make sure that if you have two pipes they need to be the same level or the shorter one will do all of the draining and the taller one will only be used if the shorter one cant handle the flow or gets stopped up.

Didn't know that. It worked. Also drilled a bigger hole on the top. Thanks all!
