Hi,
I am looking for a clean way to run the 1/4“ auto water change waste tubing from my Neptune Dos through the wall to the house exterior in order to route to the outside drain.
I was considering running a length of 1/2” PVC as conduit through the wall (and running the waste line tubing through it), but I’m not quite sure what the best install method would be to do this without essentially just having a bit of PVC sticking out of the interior wall. Is there a better way to secure this pvc to the wall and also possibly a better way to connect the 1/4” tubing to the PVC rather than just simply laying it in the pipe?
Could I drill a hole in the wall for a bulkhead and use one of those BRS bulkhead/push connect fittings to attach to that? I’m assuming if I did this, I would need to cut out a square hole above the bulkhead so that I could screw on the bulkhead from the interior of the wall and then cover up the square hole with a solid cover plate? Does anyone have a better solution than that?
thanks!
