Hey everyone. I have the new 525 g2 as a replacement for my old 525xl that leaked. The new G2 comes with dual return output. But the right side output flow is a lot strong flow than the left. Im assuming cuz the left return piping is a split off of the main right return. Has anyone else noticed or experienced this also? My main question is, is there anyway to even out the output flow ? Like have both nozzles send out even flow?

Right. The straighter run will have more flow. But, it really doesn't matter.
My main question is, is there anyway to even out the output flow ? Like have both nozzles send out even flow?
To even them out, you would have to install a gate or ball valve on the higher flow side and slightly valve it down until both sides match. Again, it really doesn't matter though.
 
Yea a valve would be the option but that mean take apart the orginal piping. Which is kinda hard to do with everything setup already in the sump. Well it kinda does matter cuz the right side i blowing sand all over in the beginning at every which angle i moved the nozzle. So i had to turn down the pump to stop from making open sand spots. I was wondering if any nozzle i can put on that would lower the flow a bit
