Its continuous.The invert elevation of the incoming sewer is 9.23 ft below from the top of the well. wet well is 7 feet dia. The depth of the wet well is 15.6 feet. The discharge pipe is 3.93 feet below the top of the wet well. The pump is flygt submersible pump.Inflow is 350 gpm @ peak flow.Please give me some tips. Thanks.
