Thanks in advanced, I have a 40 site similar to aerflo from GH system

it has 4 PVC 5in pipes at 6ft long with 40 Ez clone 15-35 psi sprayers in it

I currently have a 768gph submersible pump, is this enough to run the psi to its full potential?

I was thinking about getting somthing like a TNC 1/4 hp pump
1250 gph, 120v AC, 167W from GH , can anyone tell me if this is what i need or somthing better?

I want to be able to get thosesprayers close to the 35 psi they can handle =)

thank you!

If I'm right the pump your talking about is the stock pump for aeroflo 60. I ran 2 of these for 6 yrs before 1 went bad and it never quit working was noisy for about a year and then started leaking. The one is gotta be close to ten years old now. That being said I always thought they needed more pressure. Some people use a submersible larger pump. Wish I had more info for ya.

You'll need a 2000 "at least" litre pump, pref submersible and also a timer interrupter, which means you'll be able to switch your pump on for 20 sec, every 15-20 minutes.

let use know how you do.
