Subject: Re: How far can I run water line?



West Texas
I ran 900' of 3/4" poly pipe and tried to get by on the cheap side. went to the manufacturer of the pipe and ordered 900' on a spool. Figured that for just a small tank would only need less than 100#. Needless to say, the 100# pressure pipe is just about worthless. It had been in the ground for about 8 years and I have an average of 6 to 7 leaks per year. This is buried 2 to 2 1/2' and is in need of replacement now. Using a 1 1/2 HP pump and pumping from 115'. Have no problem with volume or pressure at the tank.
