Pumps For Livestock

Solar pumps for watering livestock: submersible pumps for a well and transfer pumps for a pond, creek or dugout, from 0.4 HP to 4 HP, as bare pumps or as kits with panels and controller. The pump runs when the sun is up and fills a stock tank or trough, which then carries the herd overnight, so most ranch installs need no battery at all.

Size by two numbers: the depth (or lift) the water comes up, and the gallons per day the animals drink. Every listing gives the pump's head and flow figures so you can check both before buying; a storage tank sized for two or three days of demand covers cloudy weather far more cheaply than batteries.

The hybrid AC/DC models can also run from a generator or the grid; choose one only if you need that backup. Give the finder your well and your head count and it will pick the pump. Figures and sizing tables are for reference; a licensed electrician should make the connections.

Not sure which one? Give the finder your well or source and your daily water, and it picks the pump with the right curve.

Have your required flow, total lift, pipe length and pipe diameter ready. Maximum flow and maximum head are different operating points; compare the pump curve for the exact model.

Is horsepower enough to select a pump?

No. The required flow at your total head, source dimensions and power supply determine suitability.

Common questions

Before you order.

If yours isn't here, ask an engineer. It costs nothing and it's the step most people skip.

What if I'm not sure this is the right product?

Ask before you order. Send us what you need to run, or your pool or well figures, and an engineer will confirm the choice — it costs nothing. Or use the finder below, which sizes from what you actually run and shows its reasoning.
