This pump can solve any off grid water application, including the dreaded float valve application most people trying to use a 12v pump have, I designed this pump 5 years ago, adding the AC pressure switch to a DC pump is unheard of, this pump can take down the water company anywhere that gets decent rain.
@@MosaicHomestead i used a cistern and 12v pump at my last house for water security. I never did the float valve thing though. I just manually refilled the cistern periodically. Only trick was you had to be sure to turn off the water to avoid flooding the vmbasement when you refilled it. Needless to say i flooded my basement on multiple occasions.
This pump is for the automatic watering system for the chicken bunker ,it's a experimental system that if it works, anyone can have water around the world super cheap with a small rain harvesting system. System will work on only one battery and one 250w solar panel, my most efficient system to date.
I never left lol, this is the best 12v pump design on RUclips, I know because it's my design lol, this pump can be used for any pump application, making it a mega pump, this pump design makes a fully sustainable rain harvesting system possible.
This looks familiar. I just hooked up a float switch/submersible pump well setup for a friend for a cattle water tank yesterday. 240 v application with no pressure tank.
Submersible is different, but I do believe that they have a 12v option, 12v problem is gpm, but I believe I solved that problem already, in the future I will put up another pump design.
This is exactly what I’ve been doing the last week. I’m rerouting a lot of our water system and installing a 1hp booster pump because the district water I'm switching to using only comes in at 6 psi. 500 ft of trenches for water and electric, pumps, filters. Big job I’m tired AF.
A 1hp pump socks up a lot of power, but moves a lot more gallons per minute, my pumps are for off grid solar applications because they use a lot less power, but move a lot less water, but I believe I solved this problem already with a new pump design I got in my head.
salve,Luis, grande lavoro, si vede che sei un professionista nel settore, molto bravo. Mi hai dato lo spunto, voglio fare questo tipo di irrigazione per il mio piccolo orto, ti chiedo, usando la stessa pompa, e innaffiando il mio orto per circa 2 ore al giorno, questa pompa va bene? Complimenti, in attesa di una tua risposta, ti auguro una buona giornata.
Ciao, volevo farti un'altra domanda, i cavi di alimentazione a 12 volt, vanno collegati ai morsetti esterni del pressostato? Grazie.Hi, I wanted to ask you another question, should the 12 volt power cables be connected to the external terminals of the pressure switch? Thanks.
@mauro659 the pump and external power cables are connected to the pressure switch, make sure positive red and pump red is on the same side of the plastic divider like I show in the video, same thing goes for negative black cable.
@@MosaicHomestead Ok, grazie, molto gentile, quando ho completato tutto l'impianto e provato le faccio sapere, di nuovo grazie, a presto, e le auguro una buona giornata.Ok, thank you, very kind, when I have completed the whole installation and tried it I will let you know, thanks again, see you soon, and I wish you a good day.
Salve, Luis, volevo chiederti, questo tipo di pompa 12 volt è adatta per rimanere accesa almeno per due ore senza bruciarsi? La mia esigenza è, di innaffiare un piccolo orticello, in attesa, ti auguro una buona giornata Hi Luis, I wanted to ask you, is this type of 12 volt pump suitable for staying on for at least two hours without burning out? My need is to water a small vegetable garden, in the meantime, I wish you a good day
Yes, the blue accumulation tank in the bottom helps with longevity of the pump, but I don't know the application you are doing, for longer longevity of pump, you can run a bigger 12v pump, for a big garden I would run a 7 gallon per minute pump with a 20 gallon accumulation tank for 45 minutes, this set up will last you for years.
@thejadeowlforge8779 if you can increase the pressure on the 115v AC above that of the pressure of the AC pressure switch...Yes, another option is getting a lower pressure AC pressure switch that is lower set than your seaflow, this is so your Pressure switch becomes the dominant switch to control your pump, any other doubt, feel free to comment back.
Hey Luis...My daughters visiting up in Cabo Rojo today and she sent me a NBC news article that reports the heat index in PR went up to 125 degrees Farenheit....🔥🔥🌴🌴...the article is online, but the algorythm won't let me load it up to send you...Stay Cool.!
Yes, we got a bad heatwave, it usually doesn't get really hot up here, but during the heatwave, I was sleeping butt naked lol, I was sweating during this pump build
@@MosaicHomesteadLOL...🤣...TMI... ✔✔...Yep...usually cooler in the higher elevations one would think...Maybe an outdoor "Misting" system that could also benefit the garden project?
@@MosaicHomestead ✔✔...I experimented with one of your 12v Solar panel and pump system ideas on a Vertical drip and Aeroponics grow system after I got acclimated to Hydropincis just to gain the knowledge and experience...raised beds would work very well where you are...I guess rotating and protecting crops or produce might pose a challenge in the event of inclement weather, but otherwise your good to go...I'm looking forward to seeing the project.
I mentioned this in the super pump video lol, but that pump was designed for normal pumping not involving float valve applications, touching the hex nut increases psi on diaphragm pressure switch on the pump, The AC switch is better, but not used on 12v DC applications because of the myth it wouldn't work, I have a 5 year old pump running on a AC switch 24/7 with no problem
The chicken bunker will run lights, fan,automatic door, emergency inverter, automatic egg production light on timer and automatic watering system with this pumping system on one single battery, chickens will have water 24/7, my most efficient 12v system to date.

@@PraxisPrepper float valves work great, I have multiple float valve applications in my multiple water applications.
@@MosaicHomestead They make a lot more sense than doing things manually like i had been doing. Thanks for the tip on the paint too!
Do I need a check valve in any of this setup?
@@joscancruz9763 check valve at out of pump recommended, doesn't have to be connected at pump, but within pump out plumbing.

Putting this together to escape the heat wave we are having, got to get some work done.
I missed your video about painting your inside of your coop. What sort of paint did you use?
I use behr exterior paint flat, the humidity here is so high, all I use is exterior paint

@@Brockleejohnson this pump will work perfectly with any type of application, including perfect use with float valves
