Talking NEW Tank Build !!!

I am pleased to announce the new tank build can now finally start. Thanks to Dave at Concepts for the amazing tank and stand, both are the best quality I have ever seen! The tank having a one piece Euro Brace and 100% star fire with unique total clear silicon.

The tank is 36x32x24 with external overflow. The sump will be in the basement about 8 feet below the tank.

The system will run everything we distribute one way or another but also form the basis for all future marketing photos for GHL equipment, for example the Mitras. The tank will run just one single silver Mitras HV.

Here are some photos I took at 1.45am this morning after getting off a plane back from Turks and Caicos getting in the door at 1.30am!! Something was bugging me! Did I measure our door gap right? will the stand fit? 30 minutes in the garage with a jenny bar and a tape measure confirmed my thoughts. Yep I measure wrong the stand wont fit, so it has to go through the patio doors, so now I have to snow blow the side of the house and around the swimming pool and get some lads over to get the stand through the rear patio doors. But before that the stand is off to a local cabinet makers to have a little mod done to it I did not get done during manufacture.

This will be a painstaking slow build, so next update will be a while

mp40s for your needs would run pretty low which also means semi quiet.

If you can pick a permanent location you could use a hole saw with a drill guide to remove the acrylic where the MP10 will sit.

At the risk of derailing again. Please ensure you do your research on Prolotherapy. It was recommended to me, but after doing my research, I found the advantages / viability of it is still up in the air as to whether the injections actually do anything for you. In the studies where it did work, people were also doing core exercises/ adjustments for the area. I found that the exercises alone were enough for my specific problem without getting rather long needles put into my spine at the same time.

I know where it is You can easily get a drill and a guide in there, yes you'll have to drain the water but it's an idea if you're set on using MP10s

The included Rubber Spacer must be used between the Dry Side and the wall for thicknesses of 1/8” (3mm) and 3/16” (5mm). The Rubber Spacer is not needed for thicknesses of 1/4” (6mm) or 3/8” (10mm). Failure to use the Rubber Spacer can damage the pump, which WILL NOT be covered under warranty.
