Pumps in series
I've seen alot of talk about running pumps in series lately. HAs anyone done any testing on this to see what the actual increases are? Wouldn't parallel pumps be better?
Won't the 2 pumps being not of 100% equal specs cause some excessive parts wear? How about pressure on both sides of the impeller when in series or parallel?
Seems to me a "holding tank" or "equalization tank" with both pumps pumping into it with one exit line to eqaulize the pressure coming out without causing undue stress on either pump would be the ideal setup?
Any thoughts on this?
