[QUOTE="Piggy_jags, post: 6834108, member: 4137"] This is one I made last summer. The bore pumps in at the top. This uses gravity to fill a tank and a submersible pump fills the header tank. The problem was we couldn’t get the bore to switch off. Luckily it didn’t matter as there was 9000 pigs on site so we needed back up from the mains. there was 9mg/l of iron in the water, after it had passed through the tanks we got it down to 0mg.The tanks needed to be raked weekly to free the trapped iron. The top couple of inches of sand changed after 6 months. [/QUOTE]
