I think thats what tangster means, like that you have more water in the pipe causing more force pushing down. Tangster correct me if wrong. | Thats it more water equals more head pressure and less static drag you get to use head pressure in your favor.. (: And that allows about a 30% increase in volume on drainage But won't work on the pressure side . Gravity sucks and the more it has to work with more it will suck up to a point.. _________ Some of the world's greatest feats were accomplished by people not smart enough to know they were impossible (Doug Larson) |

Zak | Thanks! Once I get the ceilings done in the basement it will look a lot better. Getting ready to step up from my Ocean Motion (super squirt) 4-way that handles 2,500gph to a standard 4-way that will handle 7,500 pgh and beef up how much water I am flowing. Still looking for a good pump though.
Just plan it out on paper before you start and it will help a bunch. | |
