In Reply to: RE: Answer: Re-using the tank solution posted by Rushton on October 22, 2016 at 11:16:16
Rushton,
Thanks for the detailed reply. Makes sense. Guess I'll have to see how frequently I can get around to cleaning and decide whether to keep it in the tank or drain and store.
Happy to say the pump works perfectly. I was concerned it may not have enough oomph to push the solution through the 1 micron filter, but it is more than adequate. And I was pretty impressed with what came in the box: pump, two brass barb fittings, two compression washers, two hose clamps, the wall-wart power supply, and even a roll of teflon tape. :) Not bad for $25. Very quiet, and was just warm to the touch after running for 30 minutes.
So I'm off to the races, and plan to do some cleanin' and listenin' tomorrow.

The filter is a Pentek 5" filter. It comes in 1/4", 3/8" and 1/2" ports any of which will work. Choose what best matches the pump you are able to find. I'm using this 3/8" port version:

Thanks Rushton. I bought the exact same filter housing with the 3/8" ports. Works perfectly. Filter link below for Alaskahiatt.

Great to know about another pump that will work in this configuration! Thanks, bcowen.
