Remote CompressionTank

in THE MAIN WALL
I'm short on space for a larger compression tank. By my calculation I need 14 gallons (have 7). I can;t add another one so I was considering remoting them to the water closet. So, I would have the backflow / feed valve combo and twin 7 gallon tanks about 20 feet from the boiler. I would put a ball valve at the boiler for servicing. Does anyone see any problems with that arangement?

    No Problem...

    So long as they connect back to the system where the PONPC is upstream of the circ. and the interconnecting line is of sufficient size (you may want to use 3/4").

    You can choose to do what you want, but you cannot choose the consequences.
