Water flow direction

mrbingley · 08-08-2002, 07:07 AM

From the picture below, which do think is the best way to have the water flowing in my block ?
Block A has the water climbing all the way from the inlet at the bottom left to the outlet, while B has the water climbing then falling and climbing again to the outlet.
Myself, I'm favouring the constant climb, thinking that this way would prevent any chance of airlocks.
But would the people with lots more experience please advise.

Cheers
Chris.

I doubt that it matters a whole lot... though I have my TC-4 setup like B and have had no problems with it.

B *could* let a small chance of air getting trapped.

A wouldn't.

Seeing as this is the only real concern (and there isn't really any other concern I could see), then A would be the better choice.
