Off-Grid Gravity Water System using Beaver Pond Water
5 years ago
10
Our homestead gardens needs more water so its time to use the beaver pond for an off-grid gravity water system.
We installed a pumped storage water system using around 2000 feet of pipe and a 1000 gallon tank. The total lift from the beaver pond to the tank is approx. 35 feet.
Using a Bobcat trencher with the Toolcat was brilliant for installing the water pipes.... except for that saturated clay part
The Honda water pump runs about 90 minutes to fill the tank and uses very little fuel.
In the future if we build a large structure on the hill by the tank (like a hay barn?!) we could collect rain water to feed the tank. In the meantime using a couple gallons of gas each summer is a very affordable way to fill an off-grid gravity water system.
