Hi Guys,
It's been a while since my last post, and i've been busy planning the pond and the filter.
I've worked out the flow rate that i need, and i was wondering if someone could recommend a pump that meets the requirements....
Flow rate (max) : 3000 gallons / hour (12000 litres / hour).
This flow rate needs to have the possibility to be varied (I might have over calculated and want the possibility to throttle this back), and the pump needs to be land based, but also quiet. It's going to be housed in the pump encloser so that will afford a bit of sound proofing, but it should still be quiet.
Any recommendations?
I also want to include flow meters in the setup.... can anyone recommend ones that can be used with 2" piping without restricting the flow?
Cheers
Andy.
