Small systems work great on gravity; but, when you expand, you may need a pressuring pump system. These also help if you lose your pressure when mixing nutrients and additives in a reservoir. The pump pressurizes a pressure tank and turns off. The tank then silently supplies the water with the pump not running. These also can work to transfer water from a distant tank to one closer or to automatically fill a small reservoir with a float valve.
Description
A relatively inexpensive but still high quality and easy-to-use filter. Because of the clear base, you can quickly see if it's getting dirty and you can clean it out without having to unhook your lines. Includes adapters going to 8 mm Blumat line so to install, just cut the line and push the tubing on to the adapters!
If your water isn't clean or you'd like to use thick nutrients in a reservoir, this filter will keep your Blumats safe. The screen has just the right mesh - not too big that could let clogging particles through or too small that would mean unnecessary cleaning. Clear bases make it easier to tell if they need to be cleaned but best only in dark rooms. White bases better to prevent algae build-up.
For the same price, we can also ship this with fittings for 1/2" drip, 3/8" drip, 1/2" & 3/4" slip PVC. For a little extra, we can provide a fitting for 3/4 hose thread or any combination of the above.

Description
This is the pump we use in our Blumat Pressure systems. The 8005-233-236 ShurFlo Pressure pump is ideal for a Blumat irrigation system due to being rated for continuous use and its built in pressure switch. If you'd like to do your own version of this system, we highly recommend the pump model - we've tested quite a few and this one is the most dependable, quite, and has ideal pressure and flow specs. It's more expensive than other Shurflo models but with both a built in pressure switch and internal bypass, we haven't seen anything like it yet.
This is a new and redesigned fresh water pump created with a unique one-piece diaphragm and internal by-pass, assuring long life and top performance in all systems. Constructed for high flow demand, low noise and no rapid cycling. SHURflo's quality reputation has been built on the reliability and dependability. The Revolution fresh water automatic demand pump is super quiet, thermally protected and can run dry without damage. Dimensions: 4.90 inch x 8.10 inch x 4.30 inch; Flow Rate 1.4 GPM. 115 VAC.
