hi guys. I have a few questions with regards to creating a rigid plumbing system and inserting two filters.
Issues: I'm limited to where things can go(probably should of done this before I filled the tank, but isn't hind sight wonderful). Can a vectron 400 uv filter be ran vertically instead of horizontally?( if the answer to this is no then I'll have to have a big rethink.
In the image of my intended plumbing I have indicated valves with a line through the pipe. With the uv filter I intend to use 4 valves and 2 unions so I can remove the filter without to much water spillage. I've put a valve across the main pipe to ensure flow is redirected through the uv filter should I do this with the nitrate filter also or will gravity act in my favour.
Better still has anybody got any better ideas?
