Hi Jim,
I want to top off my water garden pond from an outside well that has not been used in quite some time. I am not sure of the depth of the well at this time. I am just wondering if this is the proper pump for this application. Thank you.

Answer
Unfortunately, we would need to know the depth from the top of the well to the water level and the pump down level, before we could make any pump suggestions. IF you can confirm however that the water level in that NEVER gets below 25 feet, this pump might do the job for you.
If you have any other questions, please let me know.

Hi Jim,
Here is my current problem. At my camp we have a giant slip and slide on one of our hills. Currently I have 3000 gallons of storage on the top of the hill powered by a 7 hp gas pump. This is used up in approximately 40 minutes of continuous use. For refilling I have two methods. 1) Truck in water. 2) Fill water with standard 3/4 inch garden hose from the nearest spigot. It is approximately 160 feet away from the spigot with a 50 foot rise in elevation. Currently this method takes approximately 9 hrs/1000 gallons. Do you have a transfer pump which would be appropriate for this?
My ideal situation would be if I could get 1000/hr which would enable our slip and slide to be used by two different groups in the afternoon (3000 over 3 hours). Though I am concerned about 1) If such a pump would put too much pressure on our pipes. 2) If this is even a reasonable water use request for such a small spigot.
Thank you.

Answer
Unfortunately, you are limited to a maximum 10GPM through a 3/4" hose or PVC, so in order to increase that flow, you would need to find a way to increase your delivery method and your hose diameter running to your storage tank. This could be accomplished by increasing the size of the spigot and hose/PVC to a 1-1/4" or even 1-1/2" IF the source can handle that. This could potentially increase your flow rates to a max 26 - 36 GPM, respectively. You could try simply increasing the hose/pvc diameter to 1-1/2" with adapters and use the RJSE-75SS - 17 GPM 3/4 HP Stainless Steel Portable Sprinkler / Transfer Pump . This may get you in that 1000 GPH range.
If you have any other questions, please let me know.

I'd like to find a pump to pull water from the lake to wash my boat and deck in the boathouse. Is this pump well suited for that, or is another choice better?
And what accessories would I need? I want to connect to a standard garden hose. Thanks.

Answer
Based on your description, this Simer 2825SS pump should serve your needs. Just make sure that you are not exceeding the rated head on the pump and you are NOT closing off the discharge at any time while the pump is operating. I would recommend running a 1" PVC pipe into the lake with a foot valve and you can connect your 3/4" garden hose directly off the pump if you like.
If you have any other questions, please let me know.
