Ozito 350w

[MattSmith]

Before I go and buy an Ozito 350w pump I thought I'd ask if people think it would handle this setup:

I have hot/cold mains water in my garage to run into the still (I spec'd it for brewing when we built the house) so am planning on using that as the source. I was planning on running the outlet to a wheelie bin and then pumping from the bin back a 3000lt water tank. Top of the tank is about 1.6m off the ground and approx 20m away.

Is the Ozito likely to handle that?

I think it will.
I e been using one for about $ years now.
Mine sits in a spa, pumps around 15m to the still and lifts about 2m high to the condensers then back to the spa.

That's good enough for me, thanks :handgestures-thumbupleft:

Seriously if you give it a larger diameter pipe up to a 40mm drain pipe to send water down you will be surprised just how quick and far it will send it with little issue..
it did us extremely well during our Brizzy floods.

Got to say initially I wasn't impressed when hooked to a 13mm garden hose or 19 -25mm irrigation pipe, the Pump was choked on trying to squeeze it down the smaller diameter pipe, with a lot of back pressure.
though you may want to include a check valve on the outlet to prevent it back flowing back into the sump, though that may not be an issue for everyone.
