Some gurgling is unavoidable without either a full siphon, which has no air being draw into which means no gurgle. This will let more water flow through before a siphon starts to form.īut it will still mean slightly louder gurgling noise. to turn up your return pump a bit - you'll need a larger diameter tube on the top of your durso pipe so that it can draw in more air quicker. If you want more turnover from your DT to your sump - e.g. When you dialed you return pump down to its lowest setting, the flow in the pipe slowed enough for the little tube to be able to draw enough air in to prevent a siphon from being near to forming. and yet enough turbulent, froth water rapidly flowing down your main durso pipe to create a frothy hot-tub-jet-effect in your sump. The result: gurgling noises as it tried to suck air into the siphon. and the while the little tube was letting in just enough air to make the near siphon frothy and full of bubbles. Since that little tube on top of the pipe wasn't allowing enough air in, your primary pipe was fluctuating back and forth between siphon/not-siphon. The longer story, here's what was most likely happening: The short story: a larger diameter tube in the top of your durso should allow you to run your return pump a little bit faster without turning your sump into a hot tub. And the little tube in the top was too small to allow enough air to be pulled in to prevent a siphon. fast enough for the main durso pipe to form a near-siphon. and therefore into your overflow chamber. It sound like your return pump was feeding water to the DT. the one with the little tube sticking out the top). in which the secondary pipe is much like the primary pipe in your durso (e.g. Most times you only need to tighten a fitting down to resolve the problem.I haven't worked with a durso but I have worked with a bean animal. If you have a gas leak, the soap will start to bubble and you will know where to look. Then, spray any connection between the CO2 tank and the keg. If you suspect a leak, simply fill a spray bottle with soap and water. You will still get the same amount of CO2 as if you left it outside the fridge. Don’t worry, it is just the gas compressing. So, it is not uncommon for a person to get a CO2 tank filled, place it in the fridge, and the pounds go down. If you placed the tank in your refrigerator, where it is cold, then the CO2 will contract. That means if it is kept warm, the gas expands and will give you the 700 pound reading. CO2 is a gas, and acts like a gas when stored. If you put your CO2 tank in the refrigerator, it is unlikely that you have a leak. If it is cracked, or has dips, the lid may not seal correctly.
