Without a well, in the country, I made a water supply. But you can't drink from it. We have to disinfect with potassium permanganate. I tell you why

Plumbing in the country is the most important condition for a comfortable pastime in your favorite garden area. Therefore, after the purchase, I decided to make myself water under pressure, but not yet digging a well. The first thing I bought was a pump. The choice fell on the superficial. Its cost was 5,000 rubles.

The next stage is the purchase of pipes, I decided to use polypropylene. Since I will not bury the pipes, there is a high probability of overheating of the water in the open air if you use HDPE (black pipe). Moreover, my distance to the water source is 40 meters. Pipe diameter 25 mm. When tying the pumping station, I did not use American women (detachable connection), but immediately screwed in the combined couplings.

The pipe entered the house and immediately exited. On the street, I made a branch for connecting a hose from the "Traffic Light" min.

Further, the pipe goes to a smaller diameter of 20 mm. Powering up the washstand outside. Next I connected a black pipe, it deliberately goes in rings, on the roof, water heated in the sun enters the house.

There is another washbasin in the house for washing dishes.

The water has to be disinfected with potassium permanganate, it was recently purchased on the free market (sold at a traffic light). A special ball valve was made in the suction pipeline, for filling, as well as for adding this powder.

At the beginning of the suction manifold there is a check valve with a mesh.

After a month of use, he is in this state:

This water supply is temporary, for this season, but in order to wash the dishes and water the beds, it is enough with its head. Of course, such water cannot be taken for food, because water is taken from an open source where there is a lot of infection, so I use potassium permanganate.

My neighbors use the same water for watering and washing dishes, but they carry it around in buckets. Are they not too lazy to make themselves such a simple plumbing? Unanswered question.

Do not forget to supply the working class Like! Thank you!
