Hi, After reading a bunch of documentation on the Grundfus website I'm confused. Can the SQFlex pumps be hooked up directly to Solar panels without any control box or anything? It sure would make the installation simple. Thanks in advance, Andy R

No Wind to speak of. I'll look again for a good solar spot. Thanks

It's a manual system I put together. I have been getting the foot valves at the local hardware store. I am not pumping sand or debris. I think if I get a good one my problem will be solved. I am using a 1 1/4" PVC pipe for a suction pipe. Which foot valve do you recommend?

Thanks for the reply Valveman. Wow! You really sound frustrated. It sounds like the pump industry is going the way of most everything else in this country. Anyway, I was looking at the Betta Flo pump. It seems to have the Franklin motor. Can you give me any recommendations on pumps...

Hi everyone, I am new to this forum and need some advice. I have an 80 foot deep well but the water is 5 foot from the top. I can suck or draft 20+ GPM and never run out of water. I have a water tank that's 1200 feet away and 140 feet above the well top. I also DO NOT have any power at...
