I know that this has been discussed recently, but as usual, unless something
pertains to me at that exact second, I don't tend to remember it. Anyhoo, here's my question: I need to pump water up a hill from a creek that is about 200' away. The lift is about 75'. I'll be filling a 1/2A pond. Solar, Windmill or Ram pumps are not options. I'll want to set up a permanent type of situation in order to "top off" the pond in the summer or whenever needed.
1) What is the best size pump to use?
2) Do I need 110 or 220?
3) Should I run the wire thru PVC for protection?
4) Approx what will it cost - pump, and wire?
5) What size PVC?
6) What else do I need to consider?

Thanks, in advance.

PS - I'm moving soon, and will detail that a little later...



Just do it...
