FARM TANK System EXPLAINED! π§ How We Store and Pump Water with Solar Power!
What happens here
The presenter highlights that the solar well is positioned at the highest point of the farm, even though it could have been drilled elsewhere. This strategic placement, combined with the cistern, allows the entire water system to operate on gravity once the cistern is filled. The well only needs to push water up 22 feet (the static water level) to fill the cistern, and then gravity handles the distribution across the farm. This significantly reduces the wear and tear on the well pump and makes the system highly efficient.
Goal: Understand how strategic well placement and gravity enhance system efficiency and pump lifespan.
