    New water heater - Vent pipe seems not to be plumb ?

    Thank you So the pipe being uneven not plumb is actually due to slope ( which is code here ) it slopes toward unit. As for being unlevel I agree, they wanted to shim it, but it would had to be drained I have PEX pipe so no strain on copper …

    Sump overflow to floor drain?

    I think your spill over solution should be last resort … I would have drop in pump with garden hose ready and drain to outside or your floor drain to keep from overflowing. But it sounds like you need larger sump pump or larger outlet pipe - so it can keep up and it’s not overwhelmed, or 2...

    Filter backwash to floor drain
