Hello,

I just wanted to see if anyone would be willing to post pictures of their plumbing setup for dual return pumps into one return with a manifold/uv also.
 
I don't have a picture but I will say that if you are running manifold you do not want to use 2 pumps on 1 line. It is better to have a dedicated equipment manifold pump, and a dedicated return pump. If you run 2 return pumps directly to the display put a check valve directly after each pump and then T the lines together.
