I grew up on a farm with well water and it was the best tasteing water ever it was so cold even in the hot summer time

[@Sandra-hk8ks]

Lets get honest here....if we went to get our water like they do we would be put in jail. Thats why more people dont do it.

How about the water aqua ducts in Rome, Italy. That water systems was built in the Roman Era and is still working to THIS DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!Amish are SMART, HARDWORKING PEOPLE.

This is not entirely true. My father built a well drilling machine in about 1970 and used it for most of his career in drilling wells and changing screens. Eventually, he sold it to an Amish man. The first thing the Amish fella did was remove the rubber tires and put steel spoked wheels on it. Right away, he also removed the hydraulic system and replaced it with mechanical means as he was a machinist.
I am aware that Amish in our area will have a well drilled, but instead of using a traditional water pump like most Americans would use, they will use an air operated pump. They have plumbing in their homes. The Amish are not backward people. I respect them very much.

When I was in Gary Indiana the Amish are everywhere, they did t have any inside plumbing only in the kitchen. They even still washed clothes in wringer , agitate machines all done by hand, but their clothes were really white. The sun I think. I still won't have a clothes dryer. I hang everything dry.

I drive by an Amish farm which has a cool “Amish Clothes Line”. The far end pulley is connected up high to a silo. The other pulley is on the porch.

How do they bath? What about health and sanitation? How do they handle grey and black water?

[@sheepdogonthehill]

Grey and black water is handled just like the “English” do, septic systems

[@Sandra-hk8ks]

All water goes on the pastures. They don't have inside toilets just out houses. So the water is all safe for the taking or to use on the gardens

[@Sandra-hk8ks]

They do have showers and tubs.

But the solar has to have batterys ....without batterys solar dosent work.

[@SirTruke]

That's not true.
Solar works without batteries, just only works when the sun is shining.
