Need Hand Water Pump for Baja home

Does anyone have any idea of a place in the San Diego area that might sell one of these?



We need one for Baja---thanks

Thanks
Diane

Thanks everyone---the one we have pictured is the one from Northern Tool and if we don't find one locally, we will order it---not cheap shipping as it weighs 19 pounds.

Farm Store---good idea, will check to see if any still exist in San Diego---also, we will need to go to the Imperial Valley soon, and may find one there.

Diver---no, it is not for a water bottle----we have a stand and water crock for that.

This will probably sound really strange, but it is for our grey water. We had our grey water just going into a hole to collect for car washing, and hopefully someday for a well composted garden.

The hole was not working so our contractor is building us a small second septic type thing----cement bottome, blocks not all with mortar so the water spreads out slowly if we don't use it. ---room for lots of water. It was his idea and we liked it. He suggested an electric pump----don't want that. It will have a wood top---and we want one of these to which we will add the pipe.

I don't know why I did not think about Farm Supplies----tried about everything else.

Thanks---if it all works like we hope, we will post pics.

Great idea Diver...and can be set on a timer for when you're gone !...I will wait for you to post how to do this...can you draw a wiring diagram

Think we will keep it simple---besides, pumping and carry buckets of water is good exercise, and we both need it.

Also, would not do us much good to set it while we are gone---no grey water.

"It's my understanding that you shouldn't store grey water.
It should be used as made"

AND...that "grey water" CANNOT come from a shower!!!

...people have a "leakage" problem in the "warm" shower!!!

Not hard to control if it's your own shower.

Great idea---love to visit Santa Rosalia again---also, may look at a few places on our way down. Can't find a farm store here in San Diego---yet

Oh, as far as storing grey water, it won't really be stored. What we don't use will leech out.

Thanks
Diane

Look for an irrigation supply store or a plumbing supplier might have one.
I think the place in Santa Rosalia is where we got our Pumpa.
As you walk into town, it is on the right (same sde as the old bakery) and within a block or tow of the bakery. It has a big glass storefront.
Please hit the bakery "hard" for me !

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you,

Saw them on the net and hope there are in the store. The best thing is that there is a store in Chula Vista---not far from us.

We tried checking everything we could think about in this area, but found nothing!

Off to Harbor Freight tomorrow.
