Piping

The tank area is tilted, while the pump set is aligned straight; should the pipes run along the fire dike or be arranged in a north-south direction? I seek guidance from those experienced in piping design
The piping should follow the shortest route possible to minimize material usage; when selecting a path, it is necessary to ensure that the interior angle of the bends is at least 90 degrees. After all, the longer the pipeline and the smaller the interior angle of the bends, the greater the resistance. You can rearrange the pipes in this image according to your actual needs. The convenience of maintenance also needs to be taken into account.
Align the north indicator properly; ensure proper piping with the pump and tank parallel to each other. The requirements are specified in the piping design reference books. With this type of tank inclination, the pump has quite a few design issues
