Hi,
We are getting ready to pump the newly discovered Rowter Hole Sump in Derbyshire. I have been advised that the Ireby sump buster is a great solution and ideally suited to our needs down there. I was wondering if anyone has some advice on building (or borrowing) one of these systems?
We are restricted to getting about an 8ft length of rigid pipe down there because of two corners- not sure if that makes any difference though.
The current plan is to divert the stream away from the sump and pump out behind a dam which will be about 20m away and 3-4m higher.
Any help will be gratefully received.
Cheers
