[RE-wrenches] Solar direct water pumping

[Glenn Burt]

I did a Sunrotor pump last year and it works well. They were also very helpful on the phone.

Subject: [RE-wrenches] Solar direct water pumping

 

Hi,

 

I have a friend/client that is looking to keep his pond filled with water pumped from a spring downhill from the pond. He's happy to have the pond filled just when there is enough sun to pump, so no batteries are desired. I have little to no experience with water solar direct pumping, so I'm a little leary of spec'ing anything. The pump will sit 5 feet deep, the distance from spring to pond is about 120' and the head is about 30-40' .  He found a pump on Amazon:

Again I know virtually nothing about this topic so I'm not clear whether this pump is appropriate or not.  Any advice is appreciated.

 

Howie
