DISCHARGE PIPE SIZES FOR INSTALLATION When the pump is located at a distance from points of water use, it is necessary to increase the discharge pipe size in order to reduce friction loss. The friction loss in a system increases: 1.) As the flow rate increases 2.) As the piping size decreases Consult included Turf Boss performance tables (Appendix III) and friction loss tables (Appendix IV) to determine the amount of head lost for a given application. A.
