I was watching the BRS video on UV setup and I made the amateur mistake of running my UV plumbing from the sump back to the sump. I have a dedicated pump for my UV and of course for my return. In the attached pic, the red text and lines show the current setup (rtn pump taking water from section in sump and returning to the same section, yea now I know). The yellow line represents what i would like to do which is take the UV water and hook it up to the tank return lines via a T coupler. I am hoping this will give me close to a closed UV system. Water will go from the sump to the UV and then to the return lines and into the tank on the other side of the wall. Essentially, i will have two pumps running on one system...a UV pump and a return pump.
If I do this, will it mess up my return system flow? I plan on using a ck valve prior to the UV water entering the return lines. Any advice would be appreciated.
Apologies for the hard to read handwriting on the pic...best i could do.
