Another hammer going down. I came home to one of the heads of my green hammer retracting, and I see polyp bailout. I see no signs of brown jelly on this one.
sorry to see..onward and upward from here are you planning on treating system or riding it out?
Yes, the post go through the ceiling and attach to the floor joists where the tank will sit.hi ,going to be awesome!!!;Happy
i'm sorry, am a lifelong contractor,don't want to be a downer,
1st the support beam up to drop ceiling?? support to floor joists i am not seeing??
2nd outlets ,gcfi breaker in panel on circuit?if not outlets should be, safety first
Placing the sump in the basement is absolutely the way to go. Do you intend to set up your RODI and mixing station down there as well? I love having all of that stuff "down there" as does my wife. I also have a slop sink there as well.
My WCs are just a breeze.
My RODI system serves as both my ATO and my freshwater barrel feed. I have a quality float valve in my sump return section. This is backed up by an optical sensor in my sump should the float valve stick in the open position. I also have an optical in my barrel in case it sticks open. So far, so good.Yes, currently, my mixing station is on the other side of the basement. I want to move it into this room if it fits. I was thinking of using the freshwater container as my ATO container.

I have had the float valves stick open before. Thus the backup which I recommend.
I've been using the gravity fed ATO on my RSR 425 for almost 4 years. It will clog about every 4-5 mos, so I remove it every 3 and clean it. I usually use an air compressor to blow it out and it's fine. I don't like to add another electrical device if I don't have to..Redundancy is key in this hobby. I have had the float valve on my RODI station stick before too, and it overflowed for at least a day before I realized it. Thankfully it is in the basement on a concrete floor, next to the basement drain and sump pump, so it wasn't a big issue. I was mostly upset that I lost all that water. Currently, for my tank, the RSR350 has a gravity feed ATO, which has its own set of problems. I bought the Tunze 3155 ATO for the exact reason that it has both an optical sensor and a float sensor. However, it would be a good idea to add a backup to the mixing station, especially as it's moving over the basement's finished half.
