Juz curious on how fellow reefers who have used external pumps like Iwaki, GMP or Resun connect piping to their pumps. RC tend to favour expoxy the piping straight to pump, in S'pore, I see more people using flex rubber hose and in Europe most reefers uses flex spa pvc. Maybe anyone con contribute base on experience, what's the best practice.

:thanks:

The Americans may prefer to hard pipe to the pump but in the end they also use flex hose/flex pvc to reduce head loss.

We tend to use hose and then hard pipe all the way into the tank.

I don't think there is any right or wrong... just that using the hose would help greatly reduce vibrations from the pump.

Hard piping all the way may eventually weaken some joint due to the continuous vibration?

Using a rubber/neoprene cushion would also help reduce vibrations.

I don't like flexible hose because they are untidy. I use PVC pipes for everything except the chiller. My Iwaki uses a threaded joint.

Hi Haha... I'll await your explanation why a newcomer to SRC at the very first post will use implied expletives on a member here.
