Connector valve to moderate filter flow

[tongyang]

Hi, wonder if it is ok to use the tap of hose connector valve to slow down outflow of a canister, by 10 to 20%? Concern that it'll be straining on the filter motor. Or it is commonly practiced and the concern is redundant?

can , i also use before .
or maybe u can use one T join to make the out put hole 1 become 2. than the water pressure will slow down

Thanks for advice. Will go moderately by 10%. Still a little concern about the long term effect on the filter. The new spin lily pipe by ADA might be good solution, but the price...
