Valves you would need some bigger pvc.

Your whole set up looks really nice. It is apparent you did a lot of planning and have an eye for detail.
What did your finished height of framing around tanks end up at?

Water is always hot enough down there anyways . Right now the supply is on the top third of the tank and the return s on the bottom.

Except that water at the bottom of the buffer won't necessarily stay hot enough for long if low temperature loads return to the bottom of the buffer. If high temperature load activity happens to provide the necessary net flow to storage it would work fine, but only by luck.huffdawg said:One thing I will be changing with the buffer tank in the future is the position of the supply for the shop infloor heating.
