Hi I'm in Victoria BC,
Did you get the E-mail address of the Pascoe guy.
The energy is 70 ft =EF 10#/gal=EF 2gal/min=3D1400 ft #/min/
1 hp =3D 746 W
1 ft#/sec=3D1.36 W
1400ft#/min=3D1400/60 ft#/sec=3D1400/60=EF1.36 W=3D 31 W=3D31/746 hp=3D1/=
20th hp
The average rate of urination would be in the order of 2 to 3 gal per min=
..!!
The interesting question is what is the pressure of the output.
