Hey guys was wondering if you could help me out with a few questions that have interested me but I cant seem to find a decent full answer for em so please be detailed as possible when answering, thx
1. How does more tubing (length-wise) affect performance? Does it mean one needs a pump with more head or more gph? and if Im using a T-Line and not a res?
2. How silent are the Hydor L20/Eheim 1048?
3. What combo is recommended? Pump > Rad > Block or Pump > Block > Rad?
4. Does it matter what place in the loop the T-Line is? (of course it's supposed to be at the top of the loop but does it matter if it's before the block, after, or whatever).
5. In general, fans set to suck or blow when on Rad? (noise/performance)
6. Is there a "universal" cpu block or I can buy anything and if need be use some plexiglass + nuts and bolts to hook it up? (or this can crush core)
7. Can pumps be run without water? (if I wanna drain a loop for instance, open T-Line and run pump till there's no more water)
8. If I close off a pump in a box filled with foam, will the pump transfer more heat to the water? or will nothing change? Will the pump overheat?
