Nice work, but the stand although pretty is kinda big and bulky. We bought a rod dealie from CW which holds one filter and presses into the ground. We also have a dual filter thing, one difference we have a pressure relief valve in between them. Have had hose damage from sun's heat while we were away for the day. The water really expands in a hot hose, and the normal pressure regulator acts as a check valve so water cannot go back into the source faucet. The relieve valve opens at 80 psi to relieve pressure if necessary. Our regulator, being the standard hose type is on the other end of the faucet hose. The whole rig works great and has snap-on fittings. It is also handy to bring inside if the weather goes below freezing at night to prevent damage. Jordan
