Central Nebraska | Well it depends how much you want to dance on top of bins. We run 5" blower and the pipe goes up the side of 1 bin and then it branches out to 3 other bins. We use a cyclone at the end of pipe to fill each bin. So, we have a pipe that will span the hole over the lid. We install that with 2 clamps then the grain will go to the next bin. On top of the next bin we throw the cyclone in the hole, after blowing it out to remove the bird nest. We have steel pipes up the 1st bin and aluminum branching out from it. I've attached a pic of the bin site. You can see how the pipes run across the top of the bins. I have an elbow the branches out to the sides from the main middle bin. The smaller 2 bins each have their own pipe.
This place was originally setup for a leg back in the 70s. Bought the blower in early 80s and are still using it.
