hose pipe as back up,,,nice one PB, its always better to have things ready if disaster strikes, running up and down stairs for hose pipes and looking for stop taps is not good if a joint blows, good preperation is essential, first think what can happen, then make things ready for if it does, Its always better to have and not need than. to need and do not have,,, |

y 👂 have perk up like a dog,how do you create the vacuum,sir? it will form itself endfeed, you shut the water off, if the water can't get in, the outlet cant get out, it might dribble,but will have no force, |

Same principal works on a sealed system. |
