Tubing

What size tubing do I need?
Generally speaking, the typical back yard water garden has a low Static Head (see above), that is, the waterfall is usually between 1’ and 10’ in height. If your pond falls into this category, you can take advantage of very efficient MagDrive and HY-Drive pumps which require very little electric to produce great flows at low heads. The catch is, you’ll want to move the water through relatively generous pipes or tubing so your pump is just lifting the water to your falls without having to work against a lot of friction in the plumbing. These are the recommended maximum flows per given diameter of pipe so your pump is just lifting water, not forcing it through restrictive plumbing.
