Pump for sprinkler system?
In the interests of household economy (eeeeeh, it's just like the
1950s, I'm going to buy shares in spam) we're going over to a water meter for a 12-month trial run (house distinctly under-occupied). At the moment the garden, and in particular various pots, planters and baskets, are watered by a system of little tubes, with drippers in the pots and sprinklers for the beds. This all makes it sound like Versailles, in fact it's about 5 metres by 8, ignoring the patio and its pots. I've no idea what this will cost to run when we're paying for water by the pint, but already my mind is turning to the idea of water butts, which I guess is part of the point of water meters. Unfortunately I shan't be able to fill watering cans from the butt and water the garden that way due to a bone disease.* So, getting to the point, would one of those water-butt pumps produce enough pressure to power an irrigation system like this? Cheers! Martin *Bone idle, boom boom |
