1 psi is about 2.31 feet of head. Take some out for friction and wanting some pressure flow on the other end - use 2 feet per psi. If you set the pressure switch at a max at 50 psi then you have roughly have 100 feet of potential lift. Friction will eat your lunch if you try to get too small on the pipe diameter. 1" PVC will handle 9 gpm with minimum friction loss. Maybe up to 12 gpm on a short run. I do not remember the brand now. Was Grundfos but the well company changed for some reason. I think Myers on the last replacement but I'm not sure. |
