I am running a new schedule 40 line from my pump shed to 3 hose bibs. I need maximum pressure at one for boat washing. I was going to run schedule 40 1 inch-the run is about 80 feet. I found in my stash 60 feet of
1-1/2 inch schedule 40. My pump shed is all 1 inch so if I run say 10 feet 1 inch and then use the 1-1/2 inch then switch back to the 1 inch will this affect my pressure at bibs-I need max pressure (set at 40-60 psi ) on well. All hose bibs are up hill about 15 feet so some head pressure is at play as well.
I was just thinking of using the larger pipe as I have no ther use for it. I have plenty of 1 inch as well.
what's the verdict?? Need to know soon.
Its the last of a 450 feet trench job I'm doing. Electrical is in now its water time.
thanks
