Re: New 180

That is an option I guess. I was going to just put a hose barb on the valve and drain the water into bathtub on the other side of wall.

Re: New 180

I injected it with the weld on, and havent had a chance to test it again. I have been working with water(not the salt kind), getting irrigation going. I did mix h2o this morning for a water change. I'll try and get water in it again tonight

Re: New 180

Seems to be holding water, I have the gasket on the outside. That was a suggestion from a expert. I had to re dope the threads on the male adapter. Now no leaks

Re: New 180

I should have had you return the weld on to Kevin for me. O well I guess I have a couple excuses to go over myself.

Re: New 180

I pumped the water out of the 180, Now I need to win the lottery so I can finish putting it together. I think I'll aim for the water flow first, then ballast.

Re: New 180

Give me a call if you need a hand when you get to going on this Brandon!!! I am glad that things worked out as far as sealing the back.
I would be looking into a Sequence pump for a return!!! That should give you all you ever needed.
