Note: A
good way to think about tubing size is to imagine drinking from a
straw. If you were to try to drink a glass of water with a cocktail
straw it would take much longer than if you were to drink that same
glass of water from a standard size straw. Over the years we have
developed a chart to help our customer's size their tubing. Please
see below.

Plumbing Tip: Try to avoid 90 degree
turns for this will cause friction slowing down and reducing your
water flow. We always recommend Flexible piping instead of rigid piping to
avoid connections that can not only leak but cause friction loss
reducing your water flow.
