Looking for opinions on what is the best vacuum pump for 2100 taps. Have wet/dry line system in woods but current vacuum pump only pulls 25HG. Looking to spend up to $4000 on a pump that will really do a great job for me. What are your thoughts?

I'd recommend an Atlas Copco GVS 40A- 31cfm or a 60A- 42cfm from MES, depending on potential increase in tap count. I have a GVS 100 and am very pleased, great service and they're great to deal with.Quote:

I have a gilles benard electric belly releaser. My current pump is an atlantic fluids 2 hp that is only 20 cfm
