4Overflow and trough with diffusers for energy
break up and rip rap against the tank. Care
should be taken to ensure water does not flow
back toward the foundation of the tank.
5Rubber bladder on overflow is designed to close
when not in use. It extends only a short distance
from the tank. Care should be taken to not let
water run back toward the foundation of the tank.
