CFC installed beneath boil kettle on bottom left, the March pumps in the middle.
CFC will have to be moved about a bit as I see how well it works.
That's all until I get the stainless fittings on Tuesday to swap out.

Would be nice to get the Controllers in the mail before I start, but if they aren't in the mail tomorrow, I might need to run without them.

Here is the final construction picture, complete with all the new stainless fittings...
