Today I learned....If you look closely at the seal, it too has a vent on it.

Right after I route a gas line to my heater, replace the ceiling in the laundry room, finish my son's bedroom, clean out the pool at the house we're selling, move all our Crud out of said house ...Cee, nice clean install bud!!When are you coming over to do my setup?

That is well noted; however, the 12-foot horizontal run is hidden inside vinyl siding trim and not exposed. Only the short piece that drops down to the injection site, and half of that will be cable-tied to the underside of the PVC pipe. The whole thing sits on the north side of the house under a 4-foot overhang. I will definitely keep in mind the black tubing, which would be very simple to replace, but I'm hoping it weathers well as is.That IS a nice clean install, however...
Any of the lines that go outside are subject to UV exposure, and will degrade.
Stenner does make a black UV resistant tubing that I foresee you having to go to for outdoor runs.
The clear tubing lasted me for my first year, then I had to change to the UV rated tubing.
Cee...here's a picture of exactly where my clear tubing degraded a few weeks ago from the sun...it lasted just about a year. Unfortunately we were gone for 10 days when it happened and I don't know how long I had no chlorine...just that it was 0 when we got back. Luckily, it was on the suction side (so no leak, just dry heaving) vs the return side. I thought I had little to worry about.That is well noted; however, the 12-foot horizontal run is hidden inside vinyl siding trim and not exposed.
