Will a 3/4" thru hull support 2 Johnson pumps?? I know I aske this question before but for the life of me I can't find the answer

[Dave K]

For 2- 3/4" thru hull for 2 Johnson pumps, what would be the minimum distance aparts that I could install these through the hull? Could they go side by side with say an 1" distance between the flanges of the thru hull's?

No, definitely not. You would need to go up to a 1 1/4" intake if you wanted to share one connection for both pumps.

3/4" is the absolute bare minimum, 1" intakes would be preferable. Our rule of thumb is that holes should be at least the diameter of the largest hold apart. So 1" would be fine, just make sure you have enough room to actually assemble whatever will be going on those intakes.

Got it!

Boy is it tough to figure out which way to go. Now I'm back to the johnson pump system....stay tuned. LOL LOL

[Dave K]

Ouch!! I sure like the idea of the reversable pump, however the price tag is steep??

I think I will stick with the aerator pumps and only 1 Johnson to fill the sacs in the front, and empty the parttime sac.

Will 800 gph Tsunami pumps screw directly into the Fat sacs or do I have to buy connectors?

1" for two 1100's, 3/4" for two 800GPH pumps.

So how can two 1100 GPH non self-priming aerator pumps work fine off a single 1" thru-hull, but a 1-1/4" is needed to support a pair of 750 GPH self-priming impeller pumps

They will, but I dont like set my systems up that way for a couple of reason. 1) Its nice to pull the sacs every once in a while to let the carpet dry under them. No quick-conn makes it a pain. 2) This puts the pump in the same space as the sac, most of the time, and I have seen/heard of pump bodies or nipples braking off due to the weight of the sac resting on it.
