Horizontal tube res?

Rik1254 · 9 Sep 2013 at 22:50

Can you mount them side ways?

Reason being, my tubing lines up perfectly at the front and back of the case for it to fit?
If I had to mount it vertically, I would need to either re-plan my entire loop, or extend the pipes which would look messy as.

Thanks

Is there any particular way to find out?

Like are the ports in a certain configuration, or would just be a hope for the best situation?

I tried with a phobya balancer res and couldn't get it to bleed for love nor money.

There are a few builds floating around on here that do use a horizontal res though.

Well I can dismount it and lay it semi vertically to bleed the system, thats no problem, just thinking more the flow.

You can do it with any tube res. We have done it with phobya, Ek and ones weve had made.
