How much does this system cost retail? I copied the design and built a 6 unit + res system for less than $200, finding those uniseals for a good price was the hard part.
Maybe if you didnt have to buy the pumps. $200?, sounds like a troll.
strong box, home depot, $13 X 6 = $78
pondmaster air pump. $150
1600 gph inline pump. $150
2" uniseals, $3.50 x 12 = $42
10" netpots $3.50 x 6 = $21
Airstones. $5 x 6 = $30
total $471+
shipping, tools, reservoir, pvc, float valve, air tubing, etc. $ ?
time spent searching internet to put system together.
time spent searching the internet to piece together parts.
time spent driving around sourcing parts.
time spent fixing something you surely did wrong.
total $, couple hundred bucks.
Did you save anything? Only the brain damage of dealing with the local hydro shop. But I wont save any money.
