Nose pump

Field east · 2023-07-21 11:58:57

Am installing a nose /pasture pump and would like to know how far it can be installed from the water source. The pump will be circa 3 metres above the water source. Any information would be much appreciated

Have a lister nose pump and found it didn't work very well at what it was specified at, a bit like the battery fencers that say they will do x acres rarely live upto that in reality
