Me to, it will be a challenge to move from the shop to the house in one piece as I hope to do. I don't want to have to take the bulkheads out to pull the tank off the stand so it will take at least 6 of us to move it in.

Well I have found a new pump for my closed loop with the help of a cool cat in Regina, lockrookie.

Hopefully I will not have to change to much of the plumbing from the OM 4 way.

Finished wiring in light timer's today before my cold got the better of me. Just about done now.

New pump is now here for the closed loop today and have it almost plumbed in. Longer cords added to 2 set's of my light's so they reach the timer panel which is 95% complete. Will be finishing up everything tomorrow night and do a water test on the closed loop.

Will add pic's tomorrow.

I was just looking at your last plumbing shots of the OM4way. I very sad to tell you that you need to tear apart the plumbing that runs from the OM4ways to the valves and insert some unions in there. You have unions above the valves...but you need to have them between the valves and the OM4way as well.

Also, ensure that on the input side of the new pump it should be similar...valve, then union, then pump.

You need to be able to remove the pump and OM4way completely from the system for maintenance. The way you currently have it plumbed you won't be able to do that once it is full of water.

I have valve's in place so that I can kill the flow and pull out the pump's and the 4 way, the picture you where looking at was a test plumbing and nothing was glued together.
