It is my understaning that you are supposed to flow enough water to get a minimum drop of 10% in the static pressure. If a single 2?" outlet doesn't do it, you may need to open a 2nd, or the 4" connection. Be sure to do the proper modifications to the formula if you use the pumper connection.

Both outlets are being flowed at the same time, on the same hydrant. -- Nick Melosi 813.944.2008 _______________________________________________ Sprinklerforum mailing list http://lists.firesprinkler.org/mailman/listinfo/sprinklerforum For Technical Assistance, send an email to: [email protected] To Unsubscribe, send an email to:[email protected] (Put the word unsubscribe in the subject field) __________ NOD32 3958 (20090324) Information __________ This message was checked by NOD32 antivirus system. http://www.eset.com _______________________________________________ Sprinklerforum mailing list http://lists.firesprinkler.org/mailman/listinfo/sprinklerforum For Technical Assistance, send an email to: [email protected] To Unsubscribe, send an email to:[email protected] (Put the word unsubscribe in the subject field)
