A walk through of my basement sump. If you have any ideas or see something wrong with what I'm doing please speak up. This is my first plumb job and any help is greatly appreciated.

Sorry about the crap video just did it on a whim...

 
@Shad Quill
That's a hardcore setup and thanks for taking the time to share.

@Flippers4pups
Would you change anything, on how he's approaching his setup?

Thanks, Freddie

Just got back from work. I'll look at the video in a little while once I'm settled.
 
This is how I decided to plumb my reactors.

Looks good to me. I would have put the manifold valves on with true unions, as to be able to service them when or if they become a problem. Easier to replace if they go bad.

I agree. I wish I had done that also. I'll bench build another upgraded manifold with an extra gate valve and swap it out.

Personally, I think you know EXACTLY what you’re doing with a job that looks like that. You simply came here to show it off, and if I had a plumb job like that, I would be too.

Awesome job bro!

Hahaha. Honestly, this is my first go at it. I've just watched YouTube videos and researched till my eyes bled
 
An over all picture of how far I got last night.

I decided to change the reactor plumbing. I chose to run it from the gate valve that was open instead of adding a gate valve after the ball valve it was originally on. There's a few 90s in there but I have plenty of pump power and I'm not concern with loss.
