My wife is going to start working with me 2 days a week, so as a quick temporary solution i have opened up an old backpack and just extended the pump inlet tube and dropped it straight into the tank, and connected to a hose reel for my wife to work off. It works perfectly, which got me thinking...is it really worth spending the extra money on expansive pumps, flow controllers etc, when i could just use backpacks. I appreciate they wont last as long, but £100.00 for a new one with delivery when needed aint too bad. Could work out a lot cheaper. Does anyone else do this?

may cause pressure on these pumps if turning water on and off via pole tap. just add a shurflo pump, £70. i know a lad who just uses a backpack pump, and pole hose as his reel hose. suits him , just get a spare pump in case, there around £15 off ebay

do you use main gear for your set-up. just give it a try, just use a reel out of wilkinsons around £10 to see how it works, worth a try,
