what is the GPM flow rate max and avg
922331
According to the manufacturer website the flow rate is 6-8 gpm and provides 160,000 gallons of quality water.

The unit has flow control to limit GPM (gallons per minute) flow. Depending on whether your previous unit had flow control it may reduce how much water is flowing compared to previous unit. Many municipalities have a GPM requirement now. Whether this piece can be removed from unit is unclear.

The hot water that it outputs depends on the hot water that is needed. If one is taking a shower at 2 GPM, he will get 2 GPM out of the water heater, as long as the maximal heating capacity is not reached. The hotter the input water, the higher the maximum flow rate will be (up to the capacity of the pipes). The question is linked with the minimal flow rate of 0.26 GPM this unit has. Below this, the water heater shuts off.1. What happens if I need 1 GPM at 120F and that my input is at 115F. Will it shut off or will it output water above 120F ? 2. Shouldn't the minimal flow rate be expressed based on the temperature rise (0.26GPM at 50 degrees rise, 0.52 GPM at 25 degrees rise, 2.6 GPM at 5 degrees rise) ?

2.2 GPM with both on. with one on I would speculate it is more than 1.1 as it increases the water output of the single device. I would guess maybe between 1.4 and 1.7 with just 1 on.

Hard to say. I have a 1200 gph pump and it really flows and gurgles. Just ensure the pump discharge size matches the filter outlet. You can always install in outlet to bleed off excess pressure

While I can't tell you the gpm the faucet has excellent water pressure. We are very pleased with it

With the filter in place, not fast at all. Honestly I don't use it. Without it the flow rate is very acceptable, though I don't have a GPM answer for you.

On the box it says 3 gpm but this can be confusing. While it may be able to push 3 gpm it depends on how far from the point of use you are and how hot you want the water to be. I am in a warm weather climate and find that I can use it very easily with a 1.5 gpm shower head and for use in my kitchen sink. That seems to max out the units effectiveness. Hope this helps. By the way, I am very happy with this unit.

You can regulate the flow by turning the "red" end. Wide open, I'd guess, 1 gpm. Great nozzles.

Minimum operating pressure is 14 PSI with a maximum of 140 PSI. Maximum flow rate is 5.5 GPM

Dear Customer,Eco is newest model with 1.28 GPFSG is older model with 1.6 GPFThanks,

It depends on a couple things-How much flow does your components in the sump need? If you have a skimmer with a 500 gph pump, you'll need at least 500 gph for it to be efficient.How much flow does your return handle?Something around 700-1200 gph is what I would shoot for.

2.2GPM , but flow rate has more to do with how many GPM you can supply than PSI . For example- if you have 1/2" water lines you will have higher PSI than 3/4" lines , but you will have more GPM with the 3/4" lines.

Hi Tog, We have been using the filters at the house for over a year. They're working Great, can't tell you the GPM but I have them rigged in pairs (2 sets) and I run about 10 GPM at times. Hope this helps. Capt. Bob

Daniel: Gallon per hour flow rate is a measure of how much water goes through the filter every hour. You ideally want to circulater the water in your tank about 6-8 times per hour. So, if you have a 10G tank, you want a flow rate of about 60-80 GPH. The Finnex is advertised at about 95GPH. Unfortunately, most manufacturer's rating are hard to understand. Sometimes they are measured without any filter media, so the filter is just circulating water, but not filtering anything. Others measure their flow rates more realistically. So beware of relying on manufacturer's numbers..... The Finnex is suitable for 5-10G tanks. Some people say it will work for 20G tanks, but I think this will only work if the tank is lightly stocked. Hope this helps. Gautam Bose

I do not have a precise measurement of GPM. I took a gallon jug and timed how long it took to fill it. It was filled in about 12 seconds. That computes to 5 gallons per minute, or 300 gallons per hour. That is the best I can give you.Jeff Kraft

GPM is gallons per minute. It is the flow rate that the filter will process. The pressure drop is the lower pressure that is caused when your well water tank cycles on and off when drawing new water out of the ground. Make sure your pressure valve cuts off around 40 psi.
