Does anyone have any pics of their set ups plumbed with Ultima filters? I am thinking of switching my system over and want to see what others have done. Thanks.
 
Keep in mine that the Ultima Filters require a certain amount of water pressure or flow to properly flush it. Otherwise you will have to take it apart once in a while to clean the media out with a spray nozzle and put them back in. Good Luck!

I have and will be using a Sequence "Hammerhead" pump. Thanks.

Which Ultima will you be using? I'll be using Barracudas with my Ultima 4000s and Hammerheads with large spa filters for extra beefed up mechanical filtration. To answer your question, check out Spiff's posts. He has pics of his two Ultimas.
