Can you take it apart and put it back together with both Inlet and Outlet facing the same direction.I'm up against a concrete top and bottom.

Also, these situations require a lot of ingenuity and customizing. DO NOT USE DUCT TAPE. Buy the special aluminum tape. I was told by two other people that duct tape would fall off due to the heat. I bought the special tape mentioned in one of the reviews. By the time you have crafted a custom vent and installed it in a very tight space (with lots of trial and error, especially getting the vent taped to the outlet and inlet) you will have so much time invested that it is not worth the risk of using duct tape and finding out that everyone else was right!

No in theory you can connect it either way, but there is only a shutoff on one side, so if you connect the other side to the source all the the gas will escape, so in practice yes it is directional.

Mine is mounted vertically with the water coming in the bottom but I don't see why it couldn't be the other way.

I don't believe it is engineered that way. However, if you are handy you might be able to relocate the upright. It looks to me like it is only a matter of drilling new holes.

Only if you can put it back together. I think there is a filter so yes take it apart.

Yes, it can be installed either direction. Just have to move the drain fitting to whichever side is down.

Yes! It always springs back to one side. I had my plumber come to adjust it, but it still happens... :(

With the motor on top, and the pump at the bottom, the inlet should be on the left hand side. Outlet should be on the right.There are small arrows cast into the plastic diaghram housing of the pump.

You can. It's 2 pronged and will fit any way you arrange it. I just tried to do it on my outlet.

It's one or the other. You could move it just partly open to get some water from both, but then both inlets would then be very restricted.

there are 2 little spring arms on either side that need to be pushed back.. you have to do them both at the same time..then sort of work it out of the vent.

Sorry, the design is the same. The return outlet/output is very short and creates, as intended, a lot of surface turbulence. I keep the water level high and direct the outlet toward the aquarium wall so the force is somewhat mitigated. I agree with the previous responder; the quality has suffered with the new units.

I have used this type of fan for years. And yes you can take it apart by taking out some screws on both sides, but i like to just spray it down with the garden hose and then let it dry for the day.

I used it the way it is made. I don't think it can be changed to any other position. It is designed to fit between the joists, so exhaust outlet goes parallel to the joists.

The manual says that the system can be installed either vertically (inlet port at the bottom) or horizontally but the vertical installation is preferred. Let me know if you need any additional information. You can contact us direct for the complete manual.Ivan PashikovProject ManagerAmerican Air & Water, Inc.843-306-0070888-378-4893 toll free

I'm sorry, I don't remember if it can be separated from the outlet. This was on a piece of equipment that I no longer own.

I just bought both parts, (Pump and inlet), that way no problems when putting back together. Not a big price difference, and your saving money doing it yourself.
