As always some good detail. Would it be worth putting a stop isolator valve in the loop between the tank and pump, so if you need to change the pump etc you can seal the tank, rather than draining it. Thanks for sharing 👏👏👏👏👍
Hi Marky - thanks for taking the time. An Isolator valve would certainly be an option. But I think it's possible to over design. It's only 10 gallons full so draining wouldn't be that big a deal. Thanks for watching and stop back. Dave
Hey Ottacarr. GREAT question. One I hadn’t thought of initially. But after the fact I used a pipe clamp to hold some window screen over the end. Another thing I didn’t consider is the syphon I created when I looped the vent pipe up so high. When the tank fills and water starts coming out I have to disconnect the feed hose to break the siphon. Otherwise it would drain the tank !! (Really made me smile the first time). Always learning. I’m so glad you watched the video and took the time to comment. Hope you’ll stop back. Cheers. Dave

I’m sorry. I was wrong! What an opening! We miss you.
Nice work! Lucky you caught that!
Lucky is right !!!!!
You da man!
What might crawl up the vent line?
