Andy comments:

I got their 1/4 hp pump for 39.95 and have used it for almost a
year with no problems. It is very cheaply made, in a cheap housing,
and needs an input filter....... Hence, I had to be very careful
with it, but it has worked flawlessly. So, while I can't endorse it as

a high quality unit, it does what I needed, for the lowest price I
could find, and has been doing it for a year.......

and that's my opinion of Central Machinery stuff.....

Thanks Andy, that's what I'm interested in. My wife is a serious gardner,
has flower beds all over the place, stands around with a hose in her hand 4
or 5 hours a day. Our last water bill was over $100 and we have had lots of
rain during that billing cycle and it's not even gotten hot yet. I gotta do
something besides putting her in a straight jacket, she scratches and bites,
it would be tough getting her in it. :-)

It depends on relative utility rates and other costs, but don't be too
surprised if you find that you can't pump water as cheaply as your water
company can. A neighbor learned that with a gasoline powered pump and a well
many years ago.

I have several neighbors who have been pumping and have done so at quite a
savings and they don't water as much as my wife does.The city just
hiked my sewer usage tax from $20 a month to $40 a month and that is based
on the amount of water used so I'm going to give it a try to cut the usage
tax and the water.
I'm convinced I can save $75 or more a month. There is plenty of water in
the lake (aprox 10 acres) as it is spring fed and stays up even during dry
times. RM~
