Nice I use the same water butt for my ro water and I drain in to a big 330l tub and pump it out with a big jaboe pump but I think I may look at the sump pump as I always forgot to turn it off lol
Hi - we've just had a Titan 400w dirty water pump installed after some garden works we had done. However the automatic switch isn't coming on as, from what I can see, when the water level rises then switch doesn't tilt enough for the sensor ball inside the switch to move to the on point. Any advice on how we can better this?
I hope not - I am planning to enter the soil pipe from above, and use a non return valve - but also just started thinking about just putting it straight out onto the garden instead
mate, are you real????????? this is for a pond not a bloody water butt container. also you need to attach a hose for the water to come out.. your not really selling this video well are you :(
I can confirm I am for real. Don't know what makes you think this is for a pond - it is literally called a sump pump. In this case the water butt is my sump and does have a hose attached, just like the hose attached in the video. Not really selling your comment well are you :(
Hope you fit a non return valve to the pump outlet to save waste from your soil pipe retuning to the waterbut
The hippo ones are good aswell, we used to use one on our pond years ago for the waterfall
Bet the net curtains were twitching, with some puzzled people watching and wondering 😀
Probably - the neighbours might take a while to get used to me!

I think you need a larger diameter barrel and some way to stabilize the pump.

Hiya, what kind of hose are you using there please, what width is it and where did you get it? Thank you!
Hi, can you tell me which pipe that was you attached to it? cheers
Hi where did you buy water bottles from please
wow this was a surprise😂
my pump suddenly stop working after the flood, I think it just tripped, but can't find if there's a trip reset switch?
nice one
Can you adjust how powerful this pump is?
I was half expecting to see the water shoot up every time you were looking into the water butt.
So was I!!
Glad to be wrong! Mine does shoot twenty feet in the air!
I was actually wondering if there's enough space for the float switch.
There is as long as I orient it correctly, it was only getting stuck because of the hose and trying to line up the outlet
Nice one Graeme!
Is there a chance you may get unwanted back flow when pump not running?

@@AquariumAdventures You could pump it out to another larger butt outside and use that to water the garden?
Mr DIY, talent has no boundaries 😜
💯👍👍
Hmmm i wounder how many of us were acually watching just to see if graeme gets wet 🤔
