For those reading along, I'm considering a surge system instead of a closed loop system. I'm considering a cone tank as a possible storage tank option for a surge system with this tank.
I think this would give me the best possible options for emptying the entire volume. I would elevate it above the tank and hook it up to an actuated ball valve for the surge. THe Ball valve would be set on a timer based upon how long the return would take to fill up the tank. I plan on using 2 sequence Hammerheads for the return, with a tee off to the Surge. I'll plumb it so I can shunt flow away from the surge system incase there are significant micro bubbles. I'll be able to shut this off with company. I'm still debating the pros and cons, but this would prevent me from using a closed loop. I hated my last one so much.
