i built an airtrap cause i din't wan't a reservoir in my wc sys, the airtrap work fine right now but in think if i upgrade to a more powerful pump it wont work that good because with more preasure in the loop some of the water will go upwards.
i found out this just the other day as i was testing a new airtrap i built out all pvc parts, the pump that i used is manufactured by little giant but it doesn't have a label rating the gph, i think its arround 200gph but i am not sure, anyways i had to do the test on open loop with a reservoir so it might not apply to closed loop systems, i will test on a closed loop system using a via aqua 1300 that will arrive about a week from now. i will post my findings after i get a chance to cunduct future testing
you can see the air trap in this thread
