It would probably make sense to consider only if you're going to redo
that plumbing nightmare.
Thanks for the advice. I think I have plenty of room. I'm not sure
'why' they packed it all so tightly as they had plenty of room to
spread things out.
For example, they put all the pipes coming and going in a single line.
I would have staggered these pipes because the way they are, they had
to add elbows all over the place to get around each other.
I was able to eliminate one elbow in my recent repair, but, notice I
still had to add two wasted elbows on the new white PVC pipe which I
wouldn't have had to add if the pipes were simply staggered six inches
coming out of the ground:

You could have used 2 45's for less resistance. Not that it would make a big
difference.
