DISCHARGE LENGTH vs PERFORMANCE
As the length of the discharge hose increases, the water comes into contact with
more hose surface. As discussed in hose material, the inner wall of the discharge
hose (in contact with the rushing water) will cause friction to build up. The increase
in friction will slow the water, decreasing the discharge capacity.
Hose/pipe length is considered in Pump Select® calculations.
