Today's project

[CarlaW]

Redid the plumbing on my main return today.
Before- after shots

 

[Fishead77]

Looks like a nice setup. What's with the towels on the plumbing? And the container on the milk cartons? Is that a drip? I haven't quite figured the drips out yet. Not sure how why and when to drip?

 

[CarlaW]

The towels on the plumbing are the reason for the redo. The blue one on the new is the expected "1 drip every 100 seconds leak" . Just a precaution.
The IO bucket is a kalk drip.

Yeah right, maybe if I could reach underneath. Bad planning, but not much I can do about it now. I have plans, but I don't know how it is gonna affect what I have.

You can do all you want, but there is always that one thing. No way I can break down now, I'm too established.

Quick question Charlie,
By any chance did you gain any noticable flow by redoing the plumbing? I guess you couldn't wait for me to show up huh? nice to see you got it done though.

Congrats!!! It looks better

Charlie,
How did you get all that crusty salt of the pump without getting it to wet?

Haven't tackled that one yet Don.
Between Duane and I, I think we have an extra pump with new seals that we can slip in for a replacement. It does look rather embarrassing tho doesn't it.

charlie, can you take some shots of the overall plumbing of the tank, like the back of the tank to pleaze

It doesn't really look like it inside the tank, but it is really hard to tell. I didn't redo the tank inside either.

You can see most of it there. I am gonna be redoing the rest of it anyways. Maybe I'll post some pics after I get done.
