I have a 15' head. What pump works best?

[mitchelliii]

Would like suggestions based on people's experience.

1. What pump.

2. All PVC or reinfornced flex tubing?



I have a 15" head and am using PVC 3/4" up now. I need to make a good looking functional setup (like a well wired cabinet) for my stuff in the basement.

How much flow do you want (gallons per hour)?

GenX 40 or little giant 4 series or above. If you have 15ft head like me I use a GenX 55 High pressure along with a little giant to get the flow upthere. Actually little giant is just for back up. Both will up out 600+GPH at that head. I would suggest you use 1'' ID flex hose for movement if your pvc don't work out.

I'm not sure if you are still wondering but Iwaki is my preference for pressure applications. I am using a MD70 for my basement 15' push. It is giving about 1100 gph at that head.
