Absolutely, just make sure at the end of your season, or in your case, maybe every couple months you pull it out and make sure nothing is growing under it LOL.

Would you have to empty both legs separately with no check valve installed?

If you use a hand style pump then you should be able to suck it all down as long as you can keep the pump primed.
You wont get all the water out with a hand held pump but you will get it pretty close.

When you integrate it to the onboard boat pumps you will want a check valve on the vent line to keep from sucking in air

One thing i did cause I am worried about not getting one side drained, is getting a new valve for my bag so i can get the other side.

I know there's a mom joke in there somewhere. Just can't get my hands around it.

Why do you need a check valve on the tank?

--you dont need one if your not running a ibs

He's talking about the check valve on the vent line. Spencer at wake makers really talked me out of one so we will see how it goes. The thought is that eventually you will just sick air and the ibs won't empty

the vent line does not need a check valve, but, if you install a a ibs off the hard tank vent you run a tee fitting prior to the ibs with a spring loaded check valve on the end of hose, this way the ibs sucks down like a raisin and the hard tank is allowed to vent and drain fully. fully automatic for both and works wonderfully

no, both legs on mine empty 100%, hardly a drop of water in the ibs.

just to clarify, daze does have a check valve in his. it's cheap, so I'd put one in as I don't know if you could get the IBS to drain completely without it and only having one fill/drain port.
