Return Blowers (Tunze) Let me know ?

[Paul28]

Im not shur on how many blowers i can put on this pump im going to make a closed loop system and wanted to know what you think would be best on how many blowers to have blowing out the pump can be ran in sump or out of water im going to hook a fan to it and run it out of the water full closed loop here are few pics of the pump and also were is a good place to buy those bending blowers, i was going to build it with 1inc1/2intake and 1,1/2 inch blow out with alot of 3/4 blowers if you have any good ideas on this project let me know or should o go 1,1/2inch blowout down too 1/2 inch blowers let me know

I just measured the intake and return and there 1,1/2 inches open for ideas plz

Thx Paul

Bump, maybe someone has some good links to good ideas ?

What kinda head height are we looking at? That will affect the performance of the pump and may limit you on the amount of outlets in the tank.

As for the LocLine outlets, go to:

They have great prices on all sorts of diameters and nozzles.

pump will pump the water 5 feet up till meets the top of the tank then circle around top with blowers, tank around top is 60x18x26 tank wont be drilled for this will suck water out of main tank and flow over the back with pvc pipe

Thx for the link

So I guess your going with a 'primed' setup for the closed loop drain. I think the amount of outputs depends on what kinda flow you want to achieve. The more outputs, the less gph they will have. I would personally do 2 outlets and use a SCWD. Not sure the inlet/outlet size of the SCWD but I'd stick with that for your plumbing.

scwd in and outlets are 3/4" and i don't know if it will handle 2200 gph.....that thing is a monster!

You can split the output of the pump and run two scwds, in essance having 4 returns with random flow patterns.

Or just check out OceanMotions Super Squirt.

Ahhhh thx those squirts are cool but very pricy thats an idea ill look into. I hooked this thing up in the bath tub and it turned my tub into a wave pool might be to powerful maybe when i get my dream tank 60x30x30 this pump will make a great return pump thx for the info guys
