Getting ready to set up my doser today and just had a few last minute questions…

1. Does it matter if it is mounted vertically or flat on a table? I noticed it has some rubber feet on the back I’m guessing so it could sit on a table. Also is it okay if it doesn’t sit totally level? Like if the table I use is at a bit of a slant?

2. How does the Versa behave after a power outage? Like many of us, I’m expecting to get hit pretty good by this snowstorm tomorrow night and I was just curious if it returns to programmed settings after a power outage or if there is any bugs with this.

3. Any risks of a siphon with a peristaltic pump like this? That will determine where and how I mount the tubing into the tank.

Thanks for any and all responses!!

1- mine are mounted vertically (sideways), and they work flawlessly.
2- On power outages, no issues. When power is restored, they return to normal programming very quickly and dose whatever you missed during the power outage, if you want. On Mobious, it's called "catch-up".
3- No siphon issues, my are mounted above the water level.

Hope this help.
