Raising RDWC off floor

Recommended Posts

Does anyone here raise their system off the floor with  bricks under each bucket or similar? 

Thinking its going to make life easier identifying leaks and reducing vibrations through the floor but wanted to see if there was any arguments against besides losing a few inches height

Yes I do.....but you must raise the whole system the same imo.

 

I use rubber acoustic matts under each tote.

Yes, I do too -

I made basic frames from 50x50mm timber - the inline header tank sits on the floor, lower than the totes so it holds more water and to keep the pump completely submersed.

Also, as you mentioned, great for spotting leaks, of which I had lots when I 1st assembled my homemade system.

Other than losing 50mm head height I cant think of any cons.

Let us have a look at your set up when you get it done.
