I don't think anyone answered your plumbing question. According to the manual, you can count the cell in the 12 inches of straight pipe. I just installed my Aqua Rite last week and I mounted the cell on the vertical run of pipe from the filter outlet to the ground with the flow switch directly after the cell. It seems to be working fine that way. As far as the electrical goes it is pretty straight forward if you have ever wired anything before and the manual is good. I got the Goldline Aqua Logic control panel with mine and just took the 220v from my timer, and took off the "off" toggle from the timer.
