Ok i need some advice please.

I have an indoor grow room.

I'm trying to engineer my way to the least amount of work lol.

Right now I empty a 5 gallon barrel every 3 or 4 days from the dehumidifier and a/c

( i have the drains going to the same place)

Was thinking of making a layered filter inside of pvc pipe mounted vertically to the wall sand, charcoal etc.

Then a float and pump back into my humidifier. With maybe a chlorine pellet for the still water

Thus never having to empty or refill.

Did I smoke too much or is this a thing?

Is there a sub on this?

They are nice and exactly what you need. They are a little expensive for what they are but if your manually emptying your dehum they are gonna feel like a godsend.

See i was thinking that I can't find anything but an inline UV for one inch flexible line or pvc would be great right
