Wish I lived closer! You can call anytime though at 801 201 6579 and I'll help. It really should be easy to get it back up and running. The Durso needs to be put back in the overflow (just slides in) that I had sitting in the tank. In the sump put back the tee into the drain (under the plate). I made it removable so taking a filter bag on and off would be easier. Just get a filter bag with a drawstring, and slide it over the pipe with the tee and then close the drawstring... I just tied the long strings through the hole in the plate the drain hooks to. The return line was unhooked to drain some of the water... just slide it back on and tighten the clamp. After that add wanter and turn the return pump on!

Anyway... fill free to call anytime!
