Can you use a bottom drain with this?

There is nothing predrilled for the bottom. It has a hole at the top on each side for the tubing to come out. You would have to drill your own hole and make something water tight for your tubing.

Probably not. A bottom drain is going to be used for particles that sink in the water and are eliminated in a particulate filter. This filter works great for leaves and grass that float on the surface.

No I think you would need a separate system for a bottom drain with a seperaye pump

Yes you can. I think that this is a very good skimmer. I have it on a 1,000 gallon pond and use a 1,000 gph pump in it. It catches most of the debris but not all. A bottom drain in the pond will be an excellent addition with this simmer. The simmer will clean the surface and a bottom drain will help with the muck.

Any standard drain will work. I used a brushed stainless drain to match it best.

Bottom drain needs its own plumbing. Ideally you have this to skim off the stuff that floats and the bottom drain to pull out the stuff that sinks.

No it won't fit you have about 18" of width available but only just under 12" of height to the bottom of the drain.

Having bought and installed two of these kits with the hose fittings arranged on the bottom without any problems with water flow, I do not see why you couldn't.

No bottom....it is intended to leach water back into the soil....I placed 2' of river rock in the bottom of the hole. It works really well and can handle a lot of water. Top and sides only. I opted for the top drain attachment just in case I needed to drop in a sump pump.

Hey Cyn, I don't think it would work. You should be able to remove that stopper, but if you can't the center of this might be an issue. It is a dome shape, but the center opening goes into the drain (or at least flat to it, but I'm pretty sure it goes a little further than the ring on the outside).

Yes, it can, but you will have water pooling in the center as the legs on one side are slightly higher. I love this drainer except I replaced the silverware holder with one from Bed,Bath&Beyond; in stainless. The design of the one that comes with the drainer is awkward and everything flops over.

I rarely use it with water as we wanted it for the Suction ability on the bottom. I had one similar to this yearsago...as long as it is rinsed well & left to drain there shouldn't be any problem. I do love the product.

I don't see why not. But you would have to remove it somehow to drain the valve at the bottom.

Yes, there is an extra spout on the side at the top that you can hook up a hose to and divert the excess water from the full pot somewhere else. You could also leave the smaller drain hose open if you wanted to.

The plastic bottom is one piece with drain attached and if it's removed there would be no bottom; so no you couldn't use it with the bottom removed. It's a very nice rack though if you just clean the bottom every couple weeks. It fits in the sink nicely.

Yes you can, but the disposal will be about three to three and a half inches lower - closer to the bottom of your cabinet, and the drain in the wall must be low enough to maintain a "downhill" run from the disposal. However, some people have a special talent, they make water run uphill...

It has a hose connection so you can set it up to drain that way. I've only used it by emptying the bucket every few days.

Yes, you can attach a short length of hose to the outlet port, and run it to the floor drain. We use the gray short hose from Home Depot that RVers use.

Yes - but I modified my own with a flexi-tube from Lowes or Home Depot. Works best. A note of caution - don't allow a lot of fish scales into the drain while cleaning - until ready to flush. Otherwise it will stop up the drain.
