So you’re saying the pump in this video can push water 1500 ft horizontally through 3/4in poly pipe? I’ve been looking into a pump like this for cattle but everyone says it won’t push that far and it’ll burn up and such.
Well, I haven’t tested it that far but I don’t think it will cause it to burn up. If you’re trying to run it farther than one it’s designed to it’s not gonna overwork the pump. It’s just a diaphragm pump and it’s a cheap pump to start with if you go much bigger, are you going to need a lot more power and you’re gonna need solenoid switches and a little bit more of an advanced relay not work set up
Nice setup! Now for the $64k question.. did you get permission from the department of natural resources??? Get caught here without their blessings and they're really quick to drop $10k+ fines out for every day you've pumped... Bunch-O-Crap!
Yeah not here, we’ve got a lot more rights to use water than you do by law they have to let us drink out of the surface water if I wanted to I could actually let my cows drink out of the creek with limited access but you have to control turbidity. The very large farms that pump massive amounts of ground water they are regulated and have to report usage. But you’re actually saying you couldn’t pump that small amount of water out of a creek ? Probably big difference is that here we have a Lotta water out there you guys have to pay for water right for irrigating
@@michiganhay7844 most irrigation is paid districts, but still some like us with rights on the creek. The state is bad enough here, then the feds come in and make it worse.. just wait for the 30/30 plan.. fits in with waters of America.. the feds say they own it all🙄
Nice setup 👍🏻🙂
Interesting to see how you hook everything to batteries and panels thanks for sharing 👍
Your welcome, it’s a real good system
Looks good!

Wow love your videos the scientist at eork
Are you using an intake strainer?
At that location I did not because that was a more like a suction pump a submersible pump. I use an intake strainer.
You are set up pretty good, do you use that in the winter?
No, I’ve got a different set up with two bilge pumps running off timers next to a lake with buried water lines
Busy time making fence. And everything else
Yeah Mark this fencing project is getting exhausting
