I'm replacing my backup sump pump with a basement watchdog 'big dog' today.
In order to make the cover of the pit fit I will have to add a bend in the pvc so that the pvc goes through the slot in the lid.
My question: do bends in the pvc pipe add much drag to the water flow? My rise is about 10 feet and the pipe already has three bends in it (1) a 45 degree to the wall, (2) 45 degree up the wall, (3) 90 degree out of the house.
