    I have an outside shower connected to our artesian well and pump. The problem is the water temperature and water pressure varies all the time. You have to keep adjusting the camp water heater as you take your shower. Having a large water holding tank and a small water pump could solve that problem. The tank could be automatically refilled after the shower. A good idea to fix the water problem.

      We don't bother heating our camping shower water we just deal with cold water. If its warm out I let the water warm in the sun first.

    How about doing this for one motion activated sprinkler? I just need it to deter a few animals around my pond… garden spigot is far away… I have power source near so it’ll be kept plugged in

    Is this solution strong enough to pull water from a multi-rain barrel system? I have 4 rain barrel in different locations on my property with the need to feed a central garden, well, multiple raised bed gardens centrally located.

    Great idea. I have one question how did you get the water out of the rain barrel. Did you just put one end of the hose in the barrel or hook up the hose to the barrel spigot? Thanks

    If it has a pressure pressure switch to start and stop, how does this work with a timer? I need to set up a soaker hose.

      I would add a programmable solar powered inline Solonoid sprinkler valve at the end of the line before your irrigation. When the solonoid ooens, the pump turns on. When the solonoid valve closes, the pump turns off.

    Quick Question: I have the same pump, but it is not functioning on demand, it just runs continuously regardless of if a tap is open or not. Any ideas?

    I am looking for a system for my off grid home in the Bahamas to get water to the home for household use, would this work. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you.

    • @outdoormatters3219
      @outdoormatters3219  3 года назад

      I don't think you would be happy with the result. You need something much larger for a home system. Basically just take this exact concept and upsize it. Maybe use a bluetti ac200p and a larger pump. You can find the 200p here: amzn.to/3BQ7gFa

    Is probably just use a piece of wood in the toolbox 🧰 and close the lid so it can be out of the elements.

    • @johnkarambatsakis6535

      If it’s in the elements, you probably don’t have to worry about watering the plants that day haha
