    Beautye,

    You're fine installing the manifold assembly this way. Hope this helps you with your decision and thanks for considering AutoPilot.

    Not that I am doubting you, but after I posted my question here I did some more research and came across this statement in the "Digital Total Control Manual.pdf"


    The manifold/cell should be installed in a vertical orientation as illustrated in the picture below. This orientation
    prevents hazardous gas buildup in the system if the flow switch should fail to detect insufficient flow.




    I definitely don't want to create a hazardous situation here. Still stand by your statement that I can install it in a vertical running pipe? Thanks for your assistance.


    Regards,

    Mark

    Definately. We want to avoid mounting the manifold upside down (with the manifold loop below the horizontal base. You can mount it vertically as you described.

    That manifold is one of the things that sold me on the Autopilot. I like the idea of the check valve, on my system it seems to bleed off a lot of excess pressure.

    Without it I am not sure how you could regulate the water pressure through the cell.

    Anyway, good luck with your decision. Whichever way you go you will be happy with your SWG
