***You can use either 1 or 2 RM1200 roller mats in these sumps. The flow rate into the sump will determine whether you need 1 or 2 roller mats. Each SK5000 is rated for 1200 GPH MAX, so 2 will be 2400 GPH MAX. If using only 1 Roller mat, you can use 1 filter sock as well. For the quietest operation we recommend keeping the flow below the SK5000's Maximum flow rate.
You can use the corrugated black pipe that is included with the RM1200 and the adapters that Redsea has included. But be aware that you need to use a 1.5" to 1" PVC adapter for this to work as they only include a 1" PVC connection for the stock plumbing.
Determine how you drain into your sump. There are 2 ways to connect the RM1200 to each section in the RM72 Sump.
