Turbomax Storage - LIFO or Symmteric?

<span style="font-size:12pt">Good morning,</span>

<span style="font-size:12pt"> </span>

<span style="font-size:12pt">I’m looking at two Turbomax storage tanks which were to be piped in Last-In-First-Out order, according to spec.  The contractor piped them symmetrically instead.  </span>

<span style="font-size:12pt"> </span>

<span style="font-size:12pt">Can anyone tell me whether the symmetric piping arrangement will cause any problems, impact the lifetime, etc?  Should I have him re-pipe it?</span>



<span style="font-size:12pt">Thanks in advance.</span>

    Not a problem

    I think a simple symmetric header will work just fine. The objective is even flow. Both piping strategies will accomplish that.
