guzzler pump and 3/16

[bstewar]

Your time will come. I have a cold bush as well and seem to still be plugging along while others are cleaning up for the season. But I also start later than they do so it all works out. I have a guzzler pump on about 200 trees. 1500 feet of 3/4" mainline and about 3000' of 5/16 laterals about 20 in all. I tend to average about 15" of vac but when I have leaks it drops to 5" pretty quickly. Mostly from squirrels. But as the doc says every inch of vac is better than non eat all

I have 130 taps on 1" main with 20 5/16" laterals and pulled 15" all season with some days at the tail end of my season at 17-19". I thought my guzzler was under performing but perhaps not.

Any expansion of my existing bush or new bush will be 3/16 with a shurflo. I'll go with high vac if I have power at the site. Some producers around me have shown good flow on the 3/16. I'm sold. One question is a 3/4" mainline ok for 3/16" if I run 15-20 tap laterals?
