I would if the ports were not plugged and I'm pretty sure they were not

BL is set in place. Plumbing is not hooked up yet. Having trouble finding a pump locally. Everyone has to order it. Is flushing it with hose water good enough?

Found a pump in stock, $313 for a 26-99. My buddy picked it up for me. I got home from work, got ahold of the dealer 2 miles down the road, went ther to get some pieces and parts. Just in conversation, I asked him what kind of pumps he sells, he names a couple and then says Grundfos. I ask if he has the 26-99 3 speed and yes he does. Asked him how much. He thought for a minute and says $250. Needless to say, now I have 2 of them. 1 to hook up and 1 to put on the shelf. Expensive day but it will work out in the end.

I'm not sure what you have now, Merrell but be sure to give us a full comparison report once you get your BL hooked up and running.

Are your pumps pushing or pulling? I think slimjim suggested that the supply be from the top and the return be at the bottom. That's what I did with mine
