I have a new laguna c|flux 1.5 for one machine at a time. I've plumber ABS 4" pipe on the ceiling with blast gates. The D.C. Is connected with a 10' flex hose so I can pull it out for maintenance. It's a lot of hose for normal use and drops straight off the D.C. Before doing a 170 degree turn back up to the ceiling.
The abs goes immediately into a wye. All other turns are long 45s.longest distance to a blast gate is 25 feet. Shortest is 10 feet.
CFM feels weak though I am getting most of it.
Are there easy tests for leaks at the friction fit points? I have not used tape or caulk.
Is that flex hose bend at the start a giant problem? Should I shorten the hose and add a quick disconnect for maintenance? Other suggestions? I'd rather not jump to the 6" pipe everywhere right away please.
