Water pump clocks, parts and accessories

My hometown recently increased our water rates by almost 300%. I love growing veggies and flowers in the summer, so I checked to see if a small pump like this would pump from a small stream that runs through my property. Wayne Help Desk was the only place they could speak to me. They spent quite a bit of time helping me. Little Giant didn't even reply to my messages. I needed a pump that could pump several gallons per minute to a height of 10 feet and through a maximum 200 foot hose. .This little pump sits in a creek submerged in water and pumps over 5 GPM at 5-6 feet up through a 150 foot hose. The head is the height of the water discharge above the creek. I can go over 200ft with a 10-12ft head and the water volume will decrease but it will still work fine. You cannot use sprinklers or any other means that restrict the flow as this may cause the pump to overheat. I'll just let her move in. Using the wattmeter I have, I calculated that water costs me less than 5% of what the city uses, and water is much better for plants than purified water. I can start this pump. hours and doesn't even get warm.

Pros
  • Corrosion resistant, reinforced thermoplastic motor housing, volute and impeller
Cons
  • Cleanliness
