I’ve been going though in my head a small unit with low pressure loss at low
flow and a large unit in parallel that’s efficient at high flow. I just can’t
see a reasonable total cost.
Best.

I think this depends on exactly what you are asking. Perhaps you have not read
through the IEBC enough times. I believe the IEBC instructs code officials as
to what codes to require when alterations are made to existing buildings. In
other words it is not a code to now apply to existing
You might try the Ames M500, Deringer 50GX or Ames 5000SS

Just to clarify - what flow range do you need for this project? Will this
device be required to flow hydrants and a residential system?
How bad do you need that PSI? Could you put two BFP's in parallel? You could
have a 3" rp that will get you 6psi of loss from 100 to 300, and an 8" next to
Yep...I think that is the reality. I'm going to go back thru the calcs and see
if I can flag some high velocities or losses that a compound loop might
mitigate...otherwise, it is what it is.
