Jay,
I wouldn't. Years ago Windy offered a line of Rule bilge pump kits
with modules for array-direct fountain and landscaping apps. He
called it the SunDeLight, in Windy's typically cute naming fashion.
We sold a few. He gave up after a few years. The pumps are mostly

Mac,
That helps. My best suggestion would be a Dankoff Solar Slowpump.
The SunCentric solar centrifugal would be ideal if the volume of
water desired was greater. Mount the pump close to and above the
highest pond surface level, and use the optional 30" filter and foot
Yes, with the additional details you provided I would look seriously
at the Shurflo 2088.
An LCB will allow it to work on overcast days.

Mac,
Sounds like the Shurflo 2088 series pump that Dan mentioned would
fit the bill.
We've used them PV direct with good results, just be sure to use a
PV module
with a Voc that's not too high for the pump.

Hi Wrenches,
Let me be a little more specific about this site. Potential client has a
pond that he would like to move water to his garden. This pond is about 10
vetical ft below his garden, and the garden is about 200' horizontal '
away. He has a little shack about 20' from the pond that we wil
Hi Mac;
I would be looking at something like the Shurflo 2088 series and a
Linear Current Booster, with a check valve on the intake if you can't
mount the pump below the water level. 75-100 watts of PV should
perform just fine with that.

Mac, you need to be more specific about your needs and budget. Is a
Shurflo 9300 too expensive at $800+? It can be set up to run on a
single 12V module at about 1/2 gpm, all day; at 1/2-speed it'll go
for about 3 years before needing parts replaced. Is the smallest

Mac,
It probably doesn't pass the low cost hurdle, but this sounds like the
perfect situation for a Dankoff Suncentric pump.

Hi wrenches,
I am looking for a relatively low cost solar pumping system. The system
has about 10 ft of elevation head and he just wants to water his garden
which is about 200' away horizontally. It can either be a submersible pump
or a pump that can produce some suction. Any experience with th
