Hose to tank

[ACSTravis]

Hey all,

I'm completely set up and ready to go now, but I want to run the hose from the unloader valve back into my tank to recycle the water, what way does everyone else use to seal up the hole you must drill to get the hose into the tank? I have a horizontal tank that fills from the top(obviously) and I want to run the hose into the top of the side. So I just need to know how to seal that hole up so it won't leak and suction will be maintained.

Thanks,

i run mine to the top of the tank and use an elbow to connect it ,i did no seal it ,keep in mind the tank does not need to be air tight to maintain suction ,the washer will pull the water,also you can use a feeder hose if you dont have a reel for fresh water that can be attached the same way. use 3/8 for the unloader and no less than 3/4 for the filler

Thanks Russ,

I thought the tank had to be closed to maintiain suction, so that is good that it doesn't.

Thanks

just make shure you have a good 3/4 or larger feeder hose
