Re: Optimizing Air Cannon Range
If you're using a tank with a 1/2" hole, why not move most of your system down to about that?
We decided to go with a 3/4" Rain Bird Valve and 5/8" ID tubing since we knew the tank was a bottleneck. The advantage is we now have a higher psi rating on them all, and I'm not so afraid to take it up to 120 when the time comes anymore.
Of course we're actually testing it today, we'll see how it goes.
