Is the pump you have a water feature pump?

I as well am adding 3 wok scupper pots. 2 are about 14" above the water and 1 is 20" above. The plumbing is 3" pvc from the pump to the scuppers. Figuring about 60 to 70 feet of 3"pipe. Guessing about 8- 90's and about 4 -45 degree elbows. Looking at the pentair waterfall pumps. This is a...

Got my test kit today. Will try it out here soon and post my levels

Thanks everyone. I will get some pics up soon.

Bump for a Sunday

Thanks for the input. I do have a plumbing supply house close by that has the 2-1/2". The spare lines will be capped off. They are just in case pipes ran to the pad if one should break I have a spare plumbed and ran to the pad rather than dig up the ground to make a repair. My skimmers needed a...
