Jimmy, I would guess that if your pump discharge PSI at the 150% rated GPM test flow (from the pump curve) is higher that what you calculated for the required pump discharge, you have proved it-- (demand is 'under the curve' using that pipe size).

I got the calculation form from 20:4.20.3.4, and I have it filled out. But what to I do next? How do I use it to confirm the pipe size?
