The curb I want to put it against has a water drain pipe that would empty into the ramp. Would water have a way to exit the ramp?

It's hollow underneath the ramp, but all sides extend to the ground or the curb, so there's no opening for the water to escape other than through seepage from uneven road surfaces.

Does not have a port for drainage - just the standard method of dumping the tank when full - sorry

Yes. There is a drain cap on the bottom. And a hose can attach to it for draining away from it.

I'm definitely not an expert, but I really don't think you can. Probably the only thing you could do is put it backwards. You'd only have access to one door on the side that is at the bottom of the ramp.

No , it needs to sit level on the ground , to keep the water from flowing non stop.

I'm assuming you're talking about a free-standing tub filler? We used a tub filler mounted to the ground. The tub is very inexpensive, but the fitting on the drain is not standard and we had to mix and match parts from the hardware store to connect it to the plumbing in our house. Also, we glued ours to the deck as it is very light and could be unstable otherwise.

Yes you can. I am using it right now to divert the water from the sump pump to the street or the back yard. In the winter I cannot divert it to the street because it will freeze on the sidewalk or the street. So it drains in the back yard. When temps are above 32 degrees then I change it to the street. Works very well.

No, the drain would have to be closed for a good seal. Which would be pointless.

The water just beads off and runs down the slope of the awning. We put it over a door on our garage and it has kept the water out of the garage where it used to blow in when it rained.

There is plastic trim --that I took off. There will be a gap but I found that no water gets out.

Yes, but if it was left out all the time, it would move out of place unless fastened. There are two holes at the top of the ramp that can be used for nails or screws, which would be difficult in concrete.

To empty it, you just pick any place on the side, and bend it down with your foot. You can get most of the water out this way. Then it's light enough to pick up to finish the job.

You have it hooked up backwards. I am not sure this is possible unless you have flexible moveable pipes.

No bypass just a shutoff valve.Did you make sure your filter is elevated higher then your compressor outlet?Water is going to head for the lowest point in your line and if your outlet is lower your water is going to end up there.From your compressor you want your 60 foot of pipe to go slightly uphill to the filter.You also would benefit from a pipe going down a few feet located somewhere before your filter with a drain valve.This will work as a water trap prior to your filter.

I'm sure it will be a snap to put in a pipe that has more vertical space than I had. My "pipe" was a floor drain with 2" opening that made a pretty quick 90 degree turn but I was still able to use this product with careful setup. It worked flawlessly. I have since gotten the "pipe to clear air" for my foundation drain replaced and no longer need to use the pump and sensors.

If the rain barrel fills before you use the water and is going to overflow then lay the hose down on the ground in the direction you could use the water or put the hose in buckets to carry to water other areas/plants. Probably you would be using the water as it fills and it doesn't get a chance to overflow. I keep water in the top for birds to drink & bathe.

Yes. Just make sure the suction lines have no air leaks. It will actually pull up hill about 20 feet if the suction line is sealed. You also need to put a foot valve on the suction line so that when it shuts off the suction line keeps water in it.
