added a Dj Switch to turn on/off the pump and heaters. Still not too sure if I want to put the switch in this location but well see. :)

Yeah that's because the line is pressurized due to the valve being closed soon as the float valve is pressed down the pressure will be relieved.

To manage space I need some suggestions. Would it be possible to plumb the Calcium Reactor about 5 feet away from the sump. I would need to run it across the door step but very low profile. Good idea/Bad idea? lol
