The tubes are to be"inverted tees" and be 4 <br /> in. PVC. It is imperative that 1/8 inch screens are on each open end of the tube and that pea gravel <br /> rip-rap is placed in front of the screens to prevent infiltration from the sand filter. <br /> V.,,"C�NCLUSIONS, RECOMMENDATIONS AND MAINTENANCE <br /> t <br /> SSS§ 5g.
