Aquamedic 1/2 Chiller

I am trying to pick a pump for my new tank and I would like to know how much head prussure a Aquamedic 1/2 chiller would create. Thanks in advance,

Keith

Thank you for the reply. What I am looking to do is have three returns off my main pump. I was going to run a line to the chiller and then two others right into the tank. So right now I have figured that I have about 12f of head prussure not counting the chiller. I was wondering if I should add 2ft or so for it or if it would be a wash because it would be able to go though the other returns?

Thanks again,

Keith
