Is the spray bar supposed to spray water over the top of the wheel (B) or under the wheel (A)?

Thanks.
 
LOVE the illustrations!!!!!!! MSPaint?

Mine sprays water under the biowheel, and I believe that is the usual procedure.
 
Very Miro-like Grim *grin* I think you have a talent there...

As for the spray bar, mine also goes "under". I don't think it makes a big deal as long as the wheel is turning, but when I tried the spray bar "over", it splashed a lot more. Figured I didn't need the water dripping off the filter cover so I went with "under".
 
Mine also goes under the wheel. I think if it goes ove the wheel, the water has a longer distance to fall and will make a lot more noise.

Great diagram by the way!
 
Great Pic.

Water is suppose to go under :) As in diagram A.
