Will I get the same flow?

[Oldhead]

the pump says minimum 1 1/2 inch hose for maximum flow. Will i get the same flow from 2 3/4" lines teed off at the pump.

I think you would lose a lot of flow,,If it says min 1 1/2 hose for best flow ,what is the largest hose you can conect to the pump ? You want all the water that you are paying to pump ...you have to cut off the plastic adapters, back to the largest hose size, that will fit on the pump..
My outlet was 1 1/2 and i ran all my pipes the same size and maxed out the flow....

the pump has a 3/4 threaded nipple out the top. there is nothing to cut off. So it doesn't even start out at 1 1/2"

Then 3/4 it is....was it just the instruction that had 1 1/2 " pipe sz ?

well i emailed pondmaster and they said 1 1/2", 3/4 will restrict the flow.
