Water butt pump

Yorky1 · 25 Feb 2008

I tried attaching a hosepipe to my water butt tap but gravity alone is insufficient for it to flow. Argos do a water butt pump for circa. €77 but this seems expensive - does anyone know of a cheaper alternative?

Yep, raise your butt if you want good head (of water)

karcher do a water butt adapter if that helps any.

Cheap pond pump?

I've actually bought the B&Q own brand pump which cost circa. £30 - does anyone have any experience of this pump?

I saw a very impressive set up last year on tv, a solar powdered pump on a water butt with a timer, the lengths of perforated hose pipe was embedded in the areas they needed and could not be seen. The whole thing was automated, it even had a low level switch which topped the butt up from the mains!

God know who much it cost though, probably take 80 years to get there money back LOL
