The deeper water ramp idea was bouncing around in my head for awile
I am glad I went that route, they worked great ! I am sure I will go that way on the 28 also

Tom, What were the results of the deeper ramps, i.e., how much higher were you able to go with the cases and with what pressures?

Rainy, windy, cold, ran it anyway. Water pressure is now 23 psi up from the 12-14 I had. That is at 1 7/8" up. The ramps work very well. I will try it a little higher as I run 15" diameter Dewald.

My math says with the 1/4" to 0" ramp > 1/2" +/- left @ the rear and 1/2" +/- @ the front of the ramp. (appears to be solid glass, no core material in that area)

I looked at mine thru the drain plug holes (fittings and bezels are out) I would guesstimate bottom thickness to be 3/4" @ the very back tapering down to 1/2" @ the front of the ramp.
