As it is, yes. But if khoile puts a few more ball valves into his design, and puts a union in front of, and behind, every component it won't be nearly so hard.
khoile - if you do that, the unions I mean. Be sure that you always put every union pointing in the same direction with respect to water flow. For instance installing them all so that water flows in the little side and out the large side. That way when you replace a component, you install 1/2 a union (the little piece) on the inflow side of the component and the other 1/2 of that same union (the big piece) on the outflow side. If everything in the stand that way, switching components will be a simple matter of shutting off some ball valves (maybe a pump) and unscrewing the old component and screwing in the new.
