UV sterilizer install
Anyone have any photos on how they installed a large UV in there stand? Looking for some suggestions. Very limited with space under the stand with the sump. Algae scrubber. Water top off container. Any pictures or suggestions greatly appreciated. The UV is an 80 Watt. Emperor aquatics. So it’s a decent size. Thanks again.

Can you show a picture of the sump area and how much space you are working with and what dimensions the stand is. You can hard pipe outside the stand or behind the stand. Just keep in mind how much GPH you have going into the UV and the room you will need to change the bulb.

you should try to install it vertically however you can to avoid air trapped in the UV that will leave a void when it comes to operating effectively
