I want to install a whole hose water filter.
In my unfinished basement the water comes in from the street main directly below the the floor in a corner and the pipe runs up to just about the ceiling before branching to the water heater. I've got a shut-off valve on this piece running striaght up from the floor to ceiling and I'm think that this would be the only place to put a water filter.
As the water filter has input/output points in a horizontal fashion and the pipe is vertical what is the best way to hook it up? I guess I could sweat right angle bends in the pipe to come up around the side of the filter and something similar on the output side. Seems that it would look rather like a rats nest but there is no other way.
Suggestions?
Thanks, SJ
