I have both ca and gfo and gac running off my return pipe, all i have done is cut pipe install a T fitting, with a thread on the bottom of the T then from irrigation shop bought a thread to barb fitting, for the gfo and gac. For the calcium i did similar thing but added a ball valve, then the threaded joiner, to which i needed a bush to down size the thread to add a john guest fitting to which the water feed clicks into
see pics
first is feed for gfo and gac
