I bought my Tradewind 1/3 Super Inline Chiller a few weeks ago, and have been pondering different configurations on which way to plumb it in.
I have 2 - 1" bulkheads in my sump and plan to use both in the re-work.
The first will be using a Pan World 150 for pushing water. I plan to feed the Tradewind, then continue into a Coralife 36 watt UV, then return to the tank. This pump will run constantly.
The second will be powered with an Iwaki MD-70. Circulation through the tank and 2 reactors (Tri-Pelletized Carbon and Purigen) will be running on a timer, shut down from PM to AM.
My drains will be re-worked also. The 2-1" Spaflex will meet in the middle of the cabinet, then join together by a 1"X1"X2" Tee. The increased flow of the 2 pumps should be handled by the 2" drain.
Does this sound logical, am I overlooking something, or does it look like a plan?
TIA!
