Solar Water Pumping for Homes and Ranches Plentiful clean water is needed for our animals thrive, our crops to flourish and our existence to continue. Our own health is improved by the availability and nourishment of clean water. We may have clean ground water available, but how it is used is vitally important. How can we manage our precious water resources today, so we can salvage our availability of clean water sources in the future? Have you considered a solar water pump? Solar water pumps operate by the sun. As far as we know, the sun is still free. We can tap into the energy from the sun by using solar power; this is exactly how an independent solar water pump operates. A solar panel makes electricity when placed in the sun. Using free energy from the sun along with free water from the ground is simply smart business. They are a marriage made for each-other. The Comparison: Traditional Water Pump Traditional water pumps usually use a lot of horse power to run. Q. What happens when the water faucet is turned on? A. The traditional pump quickly pumps water from the source (well), and delivers it to the place you are demanding water. Q. What is unseen to our eye, when we turn the water faucet on? A. Deep down inside the well, there is something called an Aquafer with a variable recovery rate. This means, when water is pumped out of the well, there is a time span and a flow rate to refill the well to capacity. This is very important to the lifespan of the well. During a drought, often the well recovery speed is slowed down. When a traditional pump removes the water rapidly from a well that has a low recovery rate, the well is left empty for a period of time. When there is no water to apply pressure to the walls of the well, often what happens is the mud or rock inside the well begins to cave in. When the well caves in, disaster is next. Solar Water Pump A solar water pump runs on the sun. That’s right! It’s powered by solar energy. A solar panel makes electricity when placed in the sun. When it’s hot and sunny outside, and the plants are wilted and the horses are thirsty, that’s when you need the water the most. A solar water pump matches the water delivery with the suns output. The more sun, the more water! Q. Where can I pump from? A. Solar water pumps will deliver water from wells, ponds, springs, and creeks. Q. Can I use it for everything? A. YES!!! The solar water pump is great for watering the cows, horses, sheep or anything else that needs water. A solar water pump is perfect for open irrigation and drip irrigation. You can even use it for your home. Q. How would a solar water pump work for my home? A. Simply set up the solar water pump to bring water to a holding tank. From the holding tank, the water can feed the house. You can even feed it through your pressure bladder if you want to. But in truth, you could also have the holding tank located above the home, and have the gravity feed bring to into your home. It’s really that simple. In conclusion, the solar water pump is highly efficient and is designed to be powered directly by solar panels. A solar water pump can often be placed in the well right above the existing traditional well pump. When the sun shines, the water will pump. If you store your extra water in a holding tank for later use, then you will have water for the night time, when the sun has stopped shinning. Solar water pumps decrease and sometimes eliminate costly utility bills all together. The Installation Process. In most cases, you can do this yourself. It’s not hard. If you want to make it easy, invite a friend or a cousin to help you. Really! Here is what’s needed to make a solar water pump system: Sunshine, the right size solar power panel, a submersible 12/24 volt water pump, an underwire splice kit, some submersible water pump cable, a control switch (specially made for this solar project), the correct solar wire harness that runs from the solar panel to the control box, and someone to help. (You always need your helper). The tools are pretty basic. You need safety eye goggles, a lighter or a heat gun, some wire snips, a screw driver, a measuring tape, and functional hands. It can be installed and operational in under an hour so you can get back to other things you would rather be doing. (Installation time will vary on skill and preparation) The bang for your buck Compare the differences. Traditional pumps need electricity. That means running power lines, perhaps providing a generator with expensive fuel and maintenance costs. Solar water pumps need solar panels. Once you purchase your solar water pump equipment, you’re pretty much done. If you keep it maintained by occasionally pulling the pump out to flush out the screens, then your pump is going to run for a very long time. As far as is known, the pump is the only part in the solar water pump system that needs to really be maintained. The rest of the system is completely non-moving parts. That’s right! No moving parts typically don’t wear out, and you won’t have to maintain them. Occasionally washing the dust and bird droppings off with a water hose can be helpful, but overall, just put the panel in the sun, and let the pump run. Water Storage What can you do with all this extra water from your solar water pump? The answer is simple. Let it run! Allow it to flow into a holding tank, let the tank flow into your garden, and let the lines of your drip irrigation be filled with water. Keep your water trough full all the time. If you have water in your well, and a solar water pump sipping 1-2 gallons of water every minute, store that water and use it for where you need it most. . How much water do you need and how much water can you get??? A water pump driven directly by solar panels, should be at least 20% higher than the power required by the water pump to achieve the desired head and flow rate. Since the pump will only draw the power it needs, it will not be damaged by using an oversized solar panel as long as the voltage is correct, (12/24V) A larger solar panel will produce the needed power in less light, extending the pumping time and volume of water delivered in the morning, afternoon, and on cloudy days.
