    Default 200 E on wet dry set up

    I have 1200 to 1500 taps and was woundering if any one had ever tried a sap puller on a wet dry set up? Any thoughts would help thanks.

    just curious but what do you get for vacuum on your sap pullers? the best i can achieve is 15". I have a 200 E. Sounds like 1200-1500 taps will be a bit much for that little pump. If there are going to be that many taps you would do better with another big 3 hp vacuum pump that you can get 26" or better. Thats my opinion though

    I could get 18 or 19 on that one. On a smaller bush with 275 taps i had the 100e and that did great i pulled 4425 gall out of their it was crazzy but i set the bush up it was all new pipe so their were no leaks. The other one with 800 taps i got s only 4275 but i took that one over and didnt set it up, and you are right i need a 3 hp. Thank
