Well pump is available in many sizes that
depend on the size of well casing which is generally 4-6 inches long. But older
wells may also have well casing of less than 4 inches where it is very much
difficult to fit such pump. Also installing solar power well pump is also very
difficult for older wells. Apart from these drawbacks, you will find various
benefits of installing recently introduced solar power well pump for your
usage.
There are many
benefits of using solar power well pumps and the foremost thing is that they
are very much efficient. Most of the top quality pump manufacturers are using
stainless steel housing and mechanism for creating such pumps. Because of the
property of non corrosion, stainless steel will remain constant in water for
many years and its mechanism helps to reduce wear and tear in the pump.
Nowadays brush less DC motors for installing well pump are in trend because of their high efficiency. As they
are brush less, the users do not need to remove it from well to change the
brushes.
Another
benefit of using the pump is that it is having low maintenance as there are
only two items in its mechanism and it needs maintenance rarely. For maximum
performance the solar panels should be washed off in once or twice in a year.
And pumping mechanism should be replaced in every 5 years for longer life and
increasing efficiency of the pump. Solar power well pumps are highly cost
effective as the name itself indicates that its main source of energy is
sunlight. In most climatic condition sun provides electric energy 8 hours per
day and it pumps 2 gallons of water per minute, so it will pump out 1000
gallons of water per day that is enough for a big family which also have large
fields of different crops.
The system of solar power well pump can be easily installed only in 3 days. Solar panel connectors are waterproof and soldering is not required. Solar pump connects the solar panels and sensors through screw. It can be easily connected with the power cables and have ease in plumbing. All you need is just to place it down into the well, finished the installation and water will start flowing.
