I see those metal legs folding up like lawn chairs when a 1000lbs of water gets on top of them.

So it's ok for them to hold a 75g water heater, but not my 65g 10lb water barrel?

So how exactly does the whole setup work? I'm new to the mixing station world.

Let the plumbing begin. All 1" PVC. All valves are Spears schedule 80 ball valves.

1/2" ball valve on left is for ATO. 1/2" ball valve on right is for auto water change system. 1" ball valves in front are for gravity filling 5g jugs for fiancs tank. I also put a 2 ball valves above the pump so I could pump water out of either container.
