Question
ToddG
I'm looking at an 8hp 3" trash pump to be used for an unusual application. I need to "power" 30 regular low-flow shower heads at reasonable water pressure. This is 75 gallons flow per minute, from a pump rated at 400gpm. Will I be able to generate enough pressure, and do it without burning out the pump? I'm thinking about 20psi as a target. I guess if back pressure is a concern I could shunt some of the water back to the lake. But any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated, even looking at a different type of pump if necessary. I'm building a frame to hold the shower heads that people will walk through to rinse off a large volume of people. Like 1000ppl per hour.
I've talked to the rental company(s) and they haven't been any help at all.
Thanks
