Re: Going on air, some advice please

The Accuair setup is definitely a goal down the road. For now I think the Dloe manual valve prices can be beat.

My mom always had the best advice. It was just a tad late. After a fall that involved blood, she'd say....."Careful!"

Re: Going on air, some advice please

Since the Dloe valves use 1/4" lines and my bags came with 3/8" fittings, I wonder the pros and cons of the two different sizes..

WHen running a manual system, you will want to use 1/4" line. The 3/8" line flows more and allows for faster lift and lowering. The manual valves will slow this down, so there is no benefit in this case. At least in my opinion.

The Dloe valves are nice!

Ok thanks Travis. That is what I was thinking
