I tossed the directions, and they are closed...

Noticed my CA level low, and the CA 2 part reservoir high... Both pumps on a common timer, but one puts out a little more than the other...

You could possibly put smaller or larger diameter tubing in them....but that is unlikely to work(not sure its even possible with their pumps)

As innacurate as it seems...I would play with the dilution. If container A uses one cup more than container B in one month, dilute container A a bit. But see what BRS says...

One is moving like 5% more volume calling BRS in the AM

how long have you had the unit? most likely you will have to purchase new tubing, as old tubing gets softer

So you can't really adjust output, just calculate it

Yeah, you really can't adjust it. Whatever comes as is what it is. I have 2 of them, one is dosing at 1.1 and the other one at 1.33

Tells me separate timers.... No biggie for the Apex

I use the apex-dosing-brs pumps-whatever is called Excel spreadsheet to calculate the formula for dosing
