I recently moved to the country and am on well water. I need a source of water in my workshop; will this work with a utility pump and shop sink?

If you have any plumbing experience, sure. It's be rather simple if you can cut/glue pvc pipe. You'd have to remove the spigot and thread in a male adapter to your pvc pipe and run it into your pump, then the wash sink. I would definitely put a threaded "tee" into to the new pvc line so that you can put the spigot back on. So you can flush/fill it. If your pump is submersible then you'd have to cut a hole in the top of the tank and install a bulkhead fitting (available at HD or Lowes sometimes, and definitely Northern Tool) which has rubber seals and allows you to plumb through the tank (Unless you use the hole provided at the top of the tank but wouldn't allow you to thread on the cap with a pipe running through it).

The purpose of the 260 is to store water in the event of an emergency. If you want to use it for other purposes that fine. The tank is not meant to be pressurized or hooked up to any pumps or hot water .

that should work fine. we had a sink that we tapped into the drain line, but your idea should work. we had no problem other than operator error and got good service when we did need help.

Yes. I use 'the Works' spray cleaner which is the best cleaner for my well water issue. I also use Bar Keepers Friend. It is a nice sink if you do not have well water.

If the well holding the water at the bottom is deep enough, it would work. When the water is too low, the pump splashes water out of the container and is noisy.

The answer is complex. It depends on how far away your basement set up would be. I do not believe the water lines they supply are long enough for a long run. Also you may need to consider the pressurized holding tank may not push the water a great distance so you may have slow water coming out at the sink too. I am NOT a plumber but I believe that these factors would come into play. Hope that helps.

Yes. We use a three gallon jug that we keep under our kitchen sink. We ran the water line to the fridge so that we could use bottled water instead of our well water.

A laundry/utility sink usually has a garden hose thread on the spout. If that is what you have, you'll need an adapter (link below)best deal I could find today).Plumb Shop #SF0204 Chrome 3/4" Hose AeratorReplace the aerator that comes with it with this sprayer.You'll then have a quick changeable setup for both garden hoses and this great sprayer.

Yes, it works for "HE" machines. I usually use 2 pods for a big load, but we have "softened" well water. You may not need to with city water, if that's what you have...

The supply valve that comes with the Watts unit allows you to tap into the existing water supply while providing a means of shutting off the water to the Watts unit. As long as the device you use has the same capabilities it should work OK. There is nothing special about the tap valve supplied with the Watts purifier. My unit is still working great. Glad I bought it. Have fun~

We use this on a mobile sink we have in a work shop. For us, it works very well.

This is for the supply line from your house to your appliance. Not for use with pressure. Street water pressure only. Do not use this on the pressure side of a pressure washer.

The water doesn't know the brand of pressure washer that it is coming from. If the wand fitting is the same, it will work! This is a fantastic little gadget! Buy it, you'll love it! Saves a lot of time.

I've never tried but assuming the plumbing connectors are correct it should work. I will say one thing. This is the worst pump in the world. Had it back to the shop three times and I was told I pump too hard. Waste of money.

Nope this would go on the pressure side of the pump. Order would be fresh water tank, then pump, then accumulator, then the rest of the plumbing system. This accumulator will act as a shock absorber for the water pressure in the system. If you need more detail let me know.

This unit only requires a .4 GPM flow rate to ignite. Your water pressure has little to do with it, so it will likely work just fine. That said, if your water pressure is "all over the place", you may need a new pressure tank. It has a pressurized bladder in it that helps stabilize the water pressure as the pump turns on and off. I have a well, and the water heater works great, by the way. Good luck.

I'm not sure I understand your question. This pump is designed to connect directly to the drain fitting of a utility sink. Which is how I am using it.

This unit is designed to work with a non pressurized source, for instance a tank placed below the level of the faucet. I'm not sure if there are any that would work for pressurized and not pressurized sources in one unit, although if you can I would keep it simple and use this unit for the tank and get a regular faucet for the pressurized source.
