OK.... Since it makes a difference...

Frozen line is fed off 20ft of 5/8 going into 3/4 30ft to stalls feed for outside faucet at stalls is stepped back to 1/2 (5ft) inch for no other reason than that is what I had OH at the time.

So, for the stalls, I guess I could step up the GPM considerably by feeding the faucet with the 3/4 inch??

Now, the backup... My water meter is 30ft from the mainline valve (under the street) fed by 1inch. Output is 1 inch but immediately stepped down. The 5/8 line (choke?) would only be about 6 inches where I want to run the backup from. Length of backup from the 5/8 piece to the faucet would be 15 ft. Primary use for these two faucets is filling water tanks for the horses and could use all the volume I can get to save time....

Hope that makes it clearer.

Thanks again.

Dave
