Thanks Roger, jvision and eddiemique, it nice to finally hear from some of you guys.

The clean out will work as a gravity flow if lid is open. A pressurize gravity flow if lid is on and filter is pressurized, if it gets plugged with too much solids you can hock-up a shop vacuum to the outer valves. With 1 1/4" PVC pipe I don't think it will ever get to that, I plan on pulling water from the bottom of the filter every week. I will than used that fertilized water for plants or trees...will than add rain water back into FT.
