Todd, The Shurflo 2088-24 (model 2088-474-144) is a reliable and cheap surface pump; tolerates sediment, field rebuildable (until the motor brushes eventually wear out, but in this app that could be many years) and retails aroud $125. About 2 gpm at pressure. Not freeze-tolerant. Allan

It is off grid with water being trucked in and stored in a ground level polyethylene tank. I need recommendations for: 1) A 24 volt DC pressure pump. This is a single residence so can be relatively low volume as it will only feed a shower or sink... no irrigation. as well as 2) Which tankless (propane) hot water heater would be best? I think there is one that uses the water flow to spin a tiny generator that ignites the burner. Being off grid it is important to not have a unit that draws power 24/7.
