Thanks. I appreciate it. I believe you on the height. We have basements in the NE that are 8' ceilings. I'm guessing the ducts in your basement is at 7'. The rack is tall, but it needs to be.
Well, to go one step further. My basement ceilings are a little over 9' I would say that the top tank is at roughly 8.5'. Just about where the ductwork is. LOL

Now that's up there. I just did some calcs and my racks will be at 30" and 60", but I'm only going two high. I got some extra room because I'm using a junk 55g for the sump and leaving in on the floor.

Yeah no kidding. I will be using the big 110G rubbermaid for the sump. It requires a minimum of 25" to allow for gravity to slow.

That was supposed to be "flow".

i.e. Need to have the tanks above the sump.

They don't really give specs on how many gallons it will treat due to the variance in amounts used by the water company. I ahve a test kit so I can keep an eye on it.
