Subject: Re: 3" plumbing on water truck



Another thought is use 3" right up to the end and then have 2" hose to hook up to sprayer/applicator or whatever, a 2" hose on the discharge end will flow at least 85% of what a 3" pump can "suck" in through a 3" hose, if you are going to make any 90 turns or anything else on the discharge end do all of this in 3" plumbing as each 90 degree reduces flow by about 5% also, then right at the end go to 2" hose much easier to handle and the end result will basically be the same at a much reduced cost.
