Post by: KS Cleaning on January 11, 2015, 03:53:51 pm

Could someone recommend a good quality pump for IBC tank, will be looking to pump around 700 litres from static to van, also  1 1/2" delivery hose.

Thanks Dave, what are the connectors for? I thought the hose would just go directly on to the pump barb then hose out through the lid?

I do it the same way as you but I have a short bit of the hose just coming out the tank. I have a another (long) length of hose that reaches to the van... I use the connectors to connect the 2 hoses together, if that makes any sense..

Doing it this way, I don't leave any water in the hose (my RO is in an outside storage "box").

[/quote]Ah, I see. Just looking at the link you put up for the Clarke pump, I'm thinking of going with the PSV4a dirty water pump as it can pump out water almost twice as fast as it's 750 watts, I take it that it won't matter a jot that it's a dirty water pump?
