Hello
i bought a Liberty Simplex pump system for a garage bathroom, when I had the garage built, I had a 3” pipe installed through the concrete floor, now six years later I’m putting in a bathroom on the second floor with the intention of having the pump buried outside the garage. When I started to dig to bury the Simplex system I hit bedrock and can’t get it below the ground. I intend to place it inside the garage but now the issue is the discharge is 2” and the pipe is 3” through the garage floor. I can’t get the 2” discharge inside the 3” pipe so my question is, can I go from the 2” to 3” and then back to 2” and continue from there to the septic tank. It’s probably around 18” long that the pipe will be 3” through the concrete before I can reduce it back to 2”. I’m worried that with the bigger size I‘ll lose pressure. I’m only lifting the sewage around 6’.
thanks
