# Things Needed for Setup

## Prior to installation:

* [ ] Cut Drain Pipes - You will need to cut PVC Pipes that will be used inside the crash box section of the sump for each drain bulkhead. These pipes are not included with the sump. They Should be a minimum of 4" below the water level in the crashbox. Cut slits in the sides of the pipe near the top where it goes into the bulkheads. This will allow air to escape and reduce bubbles getting into the clariseas. A 45 Degree taper on the ends will also help.
* [ ] PVC Glue

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.synergyreef.com/installation-manuals/sk-sump-installation/things-needed-for-setup.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
