I’ve got 1/2” cpvc pipe going from my basement to kitchen that is used for an RO system (pressure tank in basement that Ts to a refrigerator and drinking faucet upstairs)
I thought about T’ing into the cpvc pipe downstairs to connect an RODI storage tank. I could then pump water through the house upstairs to a couple smaller ATO holding tanks/buckets for WC etc.
Probably 12-15’ foot up. My question is does a pumps GPH cause an issue with pvc pipe if it’s too intense? I’d have to get a fairly high GPH pump for the head loss and I don’t want to blow out my cpvc in the basement ceiling when I turn on a 2000gph pump. Or should I just run a 75 foot plastic tube when I want water... thx all
cliffs - high GPH pump -> 1/2” cpvc -> pump upstairs -> issues?
