Im sick on a Friday and stuck on the couch figured id show off a recent build. Its got some unique features. Its overly complicated, but I enjoy the challenge of a concept build! End Result: Overly Impressed!
Seeing I didnt plan for this. I don't have great photos. Especially of the obligatory final product.
But anyways guys here's a look/breakdown of the overly complicated reservoir/power side of the operation.
Pump; 2000gph
1-2" output manifold. (to 6 sites)
Return drains;
1- 2" PVC overflow manifold. (backside grey pipe)
2- .75" bottom drain hoses. (1 line per 3 sites).
2- .75" pressure relief returns. (also allows for re-circulation when sites are closed off)
Have a look in the REZ -->
.
Lets take a look towards the business end of this crazy contraption shall we?
So I call this the injector manifold. The 2" PVC gets broke down to (6) 3/4" Injectors. Each site has the potential to be a jet input like the heavy one re-circing back in the REZ. Adjustable via the 2" Ball Valve.
Current end of the system ---> 
.
At this point we have a version of a recirculating DWC. I could have stopped here. Didnt. I wanted it versatile. I wanted to be able to go from start to finish right here. Though I never will lol.
Just in case though I made this lil BAD ASS, plug and play, on the fly, add-on.
.
Which just plugs right in the end of the injection hoses. So now what, that's a rDWC/drip/aeroponic setup up right? Why stop there?
Found this beauty at the Goodwill! 5 sec differential 10 min repeat cycle timer! Precisely timed my FLOOD time and my DRAIN time. Pump now runs full blast for 1:30 sec and drains for 3:30 sec.
Built this because my other system is a Custom Under Current!!
Ill entertain any questions or criticism input suggestions negative positive whatever ... I'm stuck on the couch sick!!
