There are two lists in the excel file for 1" and 2" RPZ. Air Gap is also a way to do this as well. Contact your city to rent a water meter.

An 1" RPZ is rated for 37-58GPM and a 2" RPZ is rated 127-200GPM. I have a 1" RPZ and can verify using two 3/4" hoses it held steady at 30GPM of constant use with no water drop in the buffer tanks. A 3/4" hose will max out at 18GPM. Using 1 hose we did see a slight drop in the tank over time running 20GPM as expected.
Houston requires the water meter either be installed on the truck or trailer by them and the RPZ/Air Gap system tested first or they install the water meter at each location. In Houston you cannot legally move the water meter.
