I would like to pump water from a close by creek into a water trough for livestock. Is it possible to attach a hose 25' long?

I'm not sure if you can hook a hose up to it. You might be able to. Perhaps you can get a siphon with a longer hose. Wish I could be more help.

You can easily attach it by sandwiching the fence between a 2X4 and the water trough, I attached mine to the chicken coop and hard piped it in with PVC pipe. It was so simple.

You will need adapters to convert from 1.5 inch pipe thread to a hose adapter. Any hardware store will have these. You will reduce the water flow dramatically by using a hose. If you have a lot of water to move using a hose is a bad choice. If you are only moving a small amount of water you may want to consider a pump that is already designed for a hose.

I wouldn't think so. I could not get mine to pump water from 19 feet, let alone as they claim 25 feet. I tried to send mine back, they didn't want it, just refunded my money.Can't figure out out how you could set it at that angle. My wife uses min as a decorative item in her flower garden. About all it its good for.

No, it needs to be a complete unit you might try tighter wraps around the pipe to make up for the extra length. I bought 3 foot one from a local mobile home for use on my home and I'm using the longer one on the barn.

It will move the water, but the rate will probably drop off about 75-80% at the end of the 600' run. The problem is the diameter of the pipe rather than the power of the pump. You would get much better performance if you could run 1.5" PVC pipe for most of the distance.

I would say, in my experience no problem. I am pumping up 15 ft before the pump and running with PVC and Garden hose at least 50ft after the pump with 3 Rain Bird sprinkler heads and it works great. As I said in my review, make sure you buy a foot valve and prime both the pipe and the pump to get it started. Also use PVC and not garden hose to pull the water up the vertical haul. I like the pump. It works great for me.

Hi Glenda,We have a 3/4", 100 foot plus hose on ours. This is the second one we've had -- the first lasted eight years with two and three times a day usage for watering in our horse barn. I believe you'll be pleased with this product.All best,Denise

Technically, that's 3 feet above its rated maximum head (which is 21 feet). That doesn't mean it won't work for that application. It would just be less efficient than a larger pump with higher head rating. It also depends on how often the pump will run. Forcing the pump to push a higher column of water than its rated would probably make it wear out sooner.

Yes. We have done exactly that. Just don't raise the end of the hose higher than the water level as you need the natural water pressure for it to work (no pumps are included).

I cannot answer with precision, but was able to drain a swimming pool that is over 6 feet deep down to about 1/4 inch left. I hooked a water hose to it and the pump did a great job....

You won't be able to move this thing after you fill it. Go the hardware store and buy yourself a white "marine hose" (to distinguish it from your other hoses). They're usually about 25 feet long and relatively inexpensive. I wouldn't want to fill a container of emergency drinking water with a hose I've previously used for garden fertilizer.

Um... maybe. It will lift water about 6 inches maybe a little more if you choke the output. It comes with an extension tube and a couple of different spray attachments. I think it would be easy to attach a small hose to it.

yes, I have two 75ft hoses together for a 150 ft soaker hose and it works fine. just be sure to remove the blue washer from between the section where the hoses join.

Not enough information??? How long will the piping be? Will there be more that one outlet? Will you have a power head and if there is what kind will you have,low voltage, line voltage or air power? Don't know what 2x25 means. The standard hose is 30 ft. Any other length will have a high price. Will you want a sock on the hose? Need this information befor I can help

I wouldn't think so.. It would have to be probably 6" so you have 2" just to allow the hose to bend, not kink. The pump itself is probably 3", not counting the hose barb.

unfortunately I bought the wrong pump for the application. The water table is about 200' 1-1/4" pipe The pump sets at 285' what pump should I have bought.
