Could the 500 GPH pump up a 10' wall in 1/2 PVC?

It is rated pump 500 gph horizontally. It is a very strong pump....My GUESS ...by judging the pressure it produces in my bait wells is "yes it would probably pump 10' vertically but ,with that much head pressure you won't achieve the 500 gph rating." ........Shower for the deer lease?

You didn't say for how long the pump runs, but if the pumps turns on about every 8 to 10 minutes, I can only assume shallow amount of water is being pumped, thus 1/3 HP is all you need. The Zoeller M53 1/3 HP is a very robust pump and you should not have any problems with a 10 foot lift.

I think it only had about 10' tubing total 1/2" size. Pump would be too weak to lift very high.Vinyl tubing is measured by inside diam. it is 1/2"

Its only produces 7 amps,so no its not likely the pump would run at full capacity.

I don't think this can pull from that depth.....probably talking 1/2hp well pump power.

According to specifications will pump up to 10 feet with little loss of flow (over 2000 gallons per hour). 15 feet up seems its limit with flow dropping to 1140 GPH. It won't make it to 20 feet, flow listed as "off."

Probably! You'd have to a very large pipe of course. Drilling holes in PVC can get messy and might ruin eqpt as the plastic melts on the saws. I made a flower tower using chicken wire and weed fabric.

600 feet is a lot but if there's no head (rise from source) it should work. There are instructions included that show how to install the pump as a pressure booster to a city supply line. The problem you may find is that the pump pulls harder than the supply can provide water and you might collapse the hose on the supply side. If you install the pump at the source and let the pump push it the whole way that might work better. I push water up 6 feet and then push it 150 feet and get 8gpm. I'm on my second pump and the newer models are a little better.

I would say not unless you run it through conduit or PVC. This is not as heavy as we use to use but it worked great for our lp gas lines which was above ground.

I would think so but, have no proof of that. My pump has great pressure but, only pushes up 4 or five feet.

no for the most part, for two reasons. 1 it doesn't have a built in check valve so you would need one. when the pump shuts off the water left in the hose will flow back down again.2 it has little to no pressure behind it so it cant lift water up more then 24" high before it stops pumping water. if you can set it up to work within those parameters I mentioned and supply 12 volts DC to power it, then yes it would work but it isn't a very big pump so you should look at something in the 2000-3500 gph range.

I ran 3/4 in pvc line. Longer the distance bigger the line, same principle with the gas line.

My pump has metal male connection, therefore I think you can. I have pvc pipe, therefore my connections match existing pipe. Thread size will probably need to be matched of course.

It should mine is in 5 inch pvc I have plenty of room around the pvc pipeing and the pump is around 3inches in diameter my well is onl;y 100 ft deep and pump is set at 60 feet I wouldn't worry about setting it in 4inch pvc as long as there is plenty of water I use it for watering yard

I am using it for about 4' up and 10' across. It works great. I think it will work for you. I am using 3/4" PVC pipe for drainage. Be sure to use a check valve. I got one at lowes for $7.00

The Basement Watchdog 1050 pumps up to 4,400 GPH at 0 ft. of lift (up to 3,200 GPH at 10 ft. of lift)

you probably could if you could extend the intake pipe to the depth you need. I comes with only 3 sec. that when attached to each other will fit into a 50 Gal drum, but you could put an extender for any height you needed. The volume it pumps out is great (10 gal/min) and with very little cranking. The crank turns VERY easily. We connected a hose to the spout for gardening.
