Hi
my sump crock is a perforated one but it also has the black drain pipe in it .This drain pipe enters the sump crock about 5 inches down from the top of the crock itself , sets way above the sump pump .
There seems to be no water coming out of the black pipe only through the perforated holes .
The house was built 10 years ago with 4 inch drain tile at the foundation of the basement.
the basement is dry .
The pump crock sets way out about 15 feet from the basement wall on all sides and this means a lot of pipe to pump water through .
I want to move this closer to the wall and I guess my question is why a crock with perforated holes and the drain line enter into it.
The drain line is dry I put my finger in it and can not feel any moisture seems all the water enter the crock from the perforated holes.. Guess I want to know why the drain line and holes and if the sump pit can be moved closer to the wall
