You should check with the manufacturer; some pumps don't take well to being run in certain orientations.

I dont see how that can be the case... It seems like there would be no problems with it.

I'd expect some pumps to be unhappy at startup with the intake pointed down, particularly if they weren't at a somewhat-low point in the loop.
I'd check with the manafacturer or importer before mounting this way...
