Anyone know approximately how much water a 1/2" pvc standpipe will / could flow being gravity fed ???


thanks...

it depends on the pressure head

ie the elevation of the water above it
 
im using a half inch on a 100 gal right now. its not doing a really great job, but the tank came with a half inch bulkhead. it should only do around 300-400 gph gravity fed.
