You'll need to get piping/hoses from your nearby hardware store. Also, you'll need to make sure the sizes of the connectors are the same so your pump can be linked to your rainbar.

Are you referring to 20HF or 26HF? Do you mean fitting the flexible tube with ridges into the OHF rainbar?

Yes bro Daniel it's 20HF, very correct referring to the tubing that connects the pump to the rain bar ... Any1 with photo or video of their OHF setup can post very keen to see how u guys do it ...

Wow impressive set up..
Looks pretty hard core

How does the PVC piping help improve the system bro?

the dolphin flexi hose should be able to squeeze into the rainbar if you wanna save some bucks..
I am using the flexi hose to the rainbar too. But it depends on what kind of rate you want to pump/hr for your new setup. If its the same tank, its should work fine...
