The tank I'm getting has 2 overflows with 2 drilled holes each. If I'm right one hole is a return and the other is the drain. Now, do the drains need to be run separate down to the sump. Or can they be combined below the tank and then run down to the sump.

My tank is going to sit on the 1stfloor above the sump in the basement about 8ft from the bottom of the tank. I did run a couple of 2in and a couple of 1.5in pvc lines in the wall.

Could I join the drains together then run them down the 2in line?

Thanks
 
How about returns. Can I push it up a 2in line and split it to the 2 returns in the overflows?
