the Ecotech L1 is rated to be 3100 gph, but the 1" Apex flow sensor says its only maxing at around 830 gph... something strange there, but I don't know what yet. Not a significant level rise as you can see from the install pic. There are 5 elbows in the path, but doesn't seem that would knock it down 75%, so I have to more noodling over that... maybe 1" pipe is too small, but the output of the pump is designed for 1" pipe.

Another rabbit I'm chasing is the Apex ATK I just installed. Every 60 min (exactly) I get a text msg about an ATO pump error. Doesn't seem to say what the error is though, just "ATO pump error" -- not real helpful. I work on running that one down next week.
