fernselvis Posted October 6, 2017 Report Share Posted October 6, 2017 I have a high blow 40 air pump (Picture attached) and been using it in for a while to supply air to my 2 racks which are currently on the side of each other using the original manifold (Picture attached) and air line piping. Im in the process of moving and resetting the tanks and they will now be placed opposite each other. I was planning to run a 1/2 or 3/4'' pvc pipes with metal controllers above the racks in the shape of a U which will result in 1 end being a dead end. All the videos I have watched recommend a loop and i cant run a loop since its my living room and only 1 area is being used. Any suggestions or idea how should I distribute the air.

oem Posted October 9, 2017 Report Share Posted October 9, 2017 In order not to possibly damage the pump I would let some air bleed off from the pvc by opening a valve or several valves to limit the sound of air escaping. Just listen to how the pump sounds with no back pressure and adjust valves so the pump does not sound like it is struggling. booty on the dance floor 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
