[QUOTE="nenmrancher, post: 315844, member: 2453"] Depends on how deep you are pumping from and how much water you are trying to move. We have a well that is pulling from 400' and uses 4 solar panels that are 4' wide and 10 or 12' long from that depth it puts out 3 or 4 gallons per minute. Which does pretty good and will keep up as long as we dont have any cloudy days. This set up cost us with installation cost just over 10,000.00. We also have a older solar pump that uses a small single sun tracking panel that pumps from a shallow well of about 10' and push up hill to a drinking tank a couple hundred yards away. This pump only puts out about a gallon per minute and can not keep up very well if there is no other water available in the pasture, and it has been in use for ten years or better so I cant give you a cost on it. Both set ups work well, the only thing I would change would be to put a bigger pump on the shallow well. [/QUOTE]
