What pump for a 1200gph closed loop?

Thanks lou. Its a nice setup though, I was thinking of maybe getting one of those squirts to put on my return but that will be later down the line. Looks slick though, hows the new setup in the garage going?

$$$$$ Money, money money!!! But I've almost got everything gathered up. Now I'm going to epoxy the floor of the garage and I'm also having a 1 ton A/C installed in there. It's a really nice little two peice unit. Almost ready to get water in this thing!!!

well lou if u need a hand putting it together let me know. Uve seen my work so u know I can put something together. One thing I would recommend on that plumbing is to maybe go a little bigger on the input of that pump. U are decreasing the efficiency of that pump by going with such a small diameter pipe.

What would you say at least an 1"? So I'll install a 1" bulkhead in the sump.

from what I can see, u went with 3/4" all the way back into the tank. I would go with 1" just to make that pump not work as hard. Plus u wouldnt have to worry as much about sucking something up
