I installed my pressure gauge this afternoon, and during regular operation, it reads a value of approximately 8-8.5 psi (18.5-19.5' H2O) pressure. From my pump's H-Q curve, this translates to between 150-220 gph of flow through the system. I am fairly happy with this flow, but am not sure I trust this gauge 100% (I bought it at Crappy Trash for $6.99CAD, and its resolution isn't great... I am looking for a better gauge). Remember, stay tuned for pictures of the project in progress, coming this weekend.
