Solar Water Pump Sizing Calculator
Finding out how much water you need is key to setting up a solar water pump system. You must figure out your daily water use and know where the water comes from and
After figuring out the solar array size, pick the right pump. Look at your water needs and the pressure. Choose a pump that can handle your daily water use and fits with the solar array. The number of solar panels needed to run a 1 hp water pump changes with the system's details. A solar pump design calculation excel tool can give you a rough idea.
The cost varies dramatically. A small, all-in-one solar fountain pump kit can be $20 – $50. A larger solar well pump costs between $1,200 and $3,000, for an average of $2,000. Prices depend on the well pump size, flow rate, and more. What are the disadvantages of a solar water pump?
It should meet your water needs and work well with your solar power. How do I size the solar array for my water pump? Figure out how much power your pump needs, then pick the right number and size of solar panels. Consider the pump's power, the total dynamic head, and your location's sunlight.
Look at what you need the water for, like watering plants or for the animals. The size of the area or the number of people will affect how much water you need. What is total dynamic head, and how do I determine it for my solar water pump? Total dynamic head is the pressure the pump needs to overcome. It's the sum of the suction and discharge heads.
