I bought a Sicce return that pumps 2500gph max. My system can handle 1400gph max. The plumbing goes up almost five feet, includes three 90 degree elbows, a T that splits the return line into two different returns jets, and then on each of the returns I will be installing a Y attachment for a total of four RFGs by VCA.

What would the equivalent head pressure be with each of these joints? Will the 2500gph be reduced to 1400 or less?

Use the calculator above and the flow chart for the pump
