    Simple question, not of much importance but just curious about the spead difference.. what do you like more, a flared 3 inch nozzle or a round 3/4 for the return ? spread wise and flow

    reason i ask is because i need 4 nozzles.. i was think 2 of each but the site sells them in packs of 4 ..just looking for a second thought :confused:

    the flare nozzle concentrates and spreads the flow way more, the round one does nothing, you may as well leave it with no head.

    Thanks thats the answer i was looking for.. i thought the same thing, a 3/4 nozzle looks basically like it would make no difference
