|
|
I decided to place my T fitting where the temp. sensor is installed before my ballvalve in my setup. I figured this way I would not need the valve to be open to get a reading in my sensor. I've thought about a hypothetical brew day and if there are any reasons for this set-up vs. Kal's set up, but can't think of any. Anyone out there install the T before the ball valve or vice versa that has any insight as to which is better? Thanks.

I still plan on having the valves open and using the HERMS and recirc. the water to the HLT, so it will almost always be flowing when making those readings. Just was wondering if I was missing something by having them installed before valve, but seems it will work out OK either way as long as things are flowing.

Thanks I've already assembled it and everything is water tight. I was just wondering if in practice I would run in to an unforseen issue.
