[QUOTE="Apache, post: 426008, member: 828"] The water will be used for washing down the shed floor after treating animals. Sometimes it can be bloody etc. Adding a jug of hypochloride every now and again is very doable. It's would also be possible to fill the header tank (the first time) with a hose so the transfer pipe would remain full of water. Unless I am mistaken there should be no need for self priming ability. Whilst I have no problem with a submersible pump outside - I really wanted the pump controlled by a floatswitch in the header tank - as that is where I will be using the water. Having to manually fill the tank would be less satisfactory. In an ideal world I'd have it so the pump was tripped when the header tank got down to half full and then refill to the top. [/QUOTE]
