It looks you are knocking a lot of this out yourself. Contruction/mechanic/handyman type by trade?
I went to school for marketing, but I've been in the car wash business for about eight years now. In this business the only way to succeed is by fixing things that break yourself. There's always something broken haha. I'm an excellent student and tend to listen more than I speak. With the invention of google, youtube and forums; I'm a full time student always trying to learn what I can before calling a professional for help.
I can see where that line of business would definitely force you to learn this type of stuff yourself, especially plumbing type work which can be so expensive if you have to hire someone. Seeing all this makes me realize i need to toughen up and just finish the plumbing for my little old 75 myself lol. I'm taking it from a Herbie to just a standard overflow and return so all I need to do is plumb the drain and reroute the return. But with the bends, and there being water in the tank it's scaring me lol.
I really like using flexible pvc, aka spa hose. Its real easy to work with and lasts for years outside. It takes a little more patience to glue. every connection requires holding it tight for about a minute, but ive never had it leak. It saves you a lot of work on little connections and helps with achieving a smooth flow. I like using a lot of unions too. If you make a mistake you can chop off 3-4" of pipe, add an extension and another union. Reuse the short union somewhere else.

Getting an automatic generator for this? If so, what is your estimated power draw for this setup? 30kV?
I was looking at using the flex PVC but I hate the thought of spending crazy money on tools for it that I won't use again for a long time. Can that spa line be used for drain and return? Do you need any special tools for it?
I have a local a.c. guy who is a close personal friend out of port Charlotte I'll pm him the details if your interestedGood news! I met with 3 ac companies yesterday. First one quoted me 13,500 to install two Goodman 3 ton ac’s. Laughed him out the door.
Second company was a family owned business and will be installing two rheem 4 ton units to replace the current 3 and broken 2 ton units. They’ll also be moving the unit further away from the tanks Incase there are ever any problems with it.
The 3rd company I met with had the best price, but after speaking with company two and having several referrals from my customers I decided to play it safe and spend a few extra bucks.
