Hi,

I want to supply water to a shack that is 175ft from my 1/2hp pump. Pump is attached to a pressure tank with max pressure at 60psi.

Shack has toilet and sink which are both currently supplied by a gravity-feed system. There is a low-pressure valve on the toilet. It fills slowly but it does fill.

What would be the minimum pipe size (a single run of poly pipe) to overcome any pressure loss in the system ? The fixtures at the far end are at the same elevation as the pump.

Thanks

Hey, wait a minute.

This is awkward, but...
