Certify the water level is actually low. Very carefully open the manhole cover outside of the pump house. (Between the pump house and the emergency fill pipe). Water level should be nearish the top. If the water is indeed low, there’s a fill line in the far corner of the pump house- technically this should automatically open and fill once the level gets low. <div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">May want to enlist daver for assistance <br><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto"><br><div class="gmail_quote gmail_quote_container"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Tue, Aug 5, 2025 at 09:11 Mike Gaisford <<a href="mailto:mgaisford@gmail.com" rel="noreferrer nofollow noopener">mgaisford@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left-width:1px;border-left-style:solid;padding-left:1ex;border-left-color:rgb(204,204,204)"><div dir="auto">How do we get the water level up?</div><div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Tue, Aug 5, 2025 at 9:01 AM Phéna Proxima <<a href="mailto:adam@phenaproxima.net" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer nofollow noopener">adam@phenaproxima.net</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left-width:1px;border-left-style:solid;padding-left:1ex;border-left-color:rgb(204,204,204)"><div style="font-family:Arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px">I am in Canada for most of the month, but I will see if I can get some advice on this one.</div><div style="font-family:Arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px"><br></div><div style="font-family:Arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px">Adam</div><div>
