two man setup
« on: November 04, 2013, 10:52:18 pm »
hi, im looking to organize a two man set up and thinking of using two poles from the same pump,would this work effectively?or do I need to go for a more expensive option of having another pump fitted.any advise welcome.

1 pump will work but not very efficiently. Especially if the two of you work at different heights.
Just go for another pump, it'll only cost another £100 or so. You'll more than make it back in time saved...

It's just the internet. Try not to worry.

One pump is fine. Unless I've been doing it wrong for 8 years.....

Get a y splitter with taps on so you can adjust the flow so each pole gets the same amount of water..

1 pump 2 poles will work absolutely fine. You will just get an increase when one pole if turned off, but it won't be instantly.

Had a great day today although finished at 1.30  cus of rain.we did what I wanted with a 700litre tank and with a quarter left.first time as two man so I now understand could definitely do another 80 quid before the water finishes.really pleased with this but only have enough work to do this once a week.need to start canvassing again.
