Transferring Water From A Higher Tank To A Lower A Tank With A Hand Siphon Pump And Hose


This simple hand pump has helped me create a very effective water hose siphon effect very reliably. As long as the source water tank is higher than the destination, once you pump the air out of the hose, physics take over and you can send water anywhere down slope even if it has to climb a fair distance first.
