I hope the voltage in that area is okay to carry at least to carry a bigger size of pump

I will suggest 1.5hp or 2hp. But confirm the Voltage in that area first before you make your choice
We use a 8kva generator, the biggest thermocool generator to power the pumping machine

I don't know why I don't fancy low fence/gates or see through gates... I like my privacy...not the one that everyone passing will be able to see inside my compound. But that gate is fine though.

The size of the pump is small compare to the litres of pump. The pump will over work and might likely affect the coil in future
You are absolutely right.
The distance matters, that is what we normal used to determine the size of pump.
It also written on the pump but people don’t take notice of this.

For example 1hp
Height/meter
@93m. It will deliver 15lts per minute
@74m. It ..,, ……..45 lts. “. “
See interdab pump as sample

So I can see that the OP bore hole distance to tank will be up to 100meters
Means to get the 3000lts filled up it will take 3.5hours or so

Calculation let’s say @100meter … 14lts
3000lts divided by 14lts =214 minute
214m divided by 60minute =3.5hours

So to get your water tank of 3000lts capacity to filled up btw 1-1:30min, you will need 1.5hp or 2hp
Another thing is that your bore hole must have enough water if not the pump will dry it up quickly

My plumber says he will run water pipe through the roof after the frame for the roof is completed (water tank sits on decking over the staircase leading to the first floor).

Is this a new practice in plumbing cos I have not seen anywhere water pipes run through the roof .

Since the tank sits no roof its better to run the pipe from up, but not through the roof.

If your house is inside a regulated estate, you will be compelled to do low fence/gate or see through.

300k is too much for this kind of see through gate, the hollow pipe of 5.5 meters itself (2mm) thickness is not up to #6,000 currently. So how many hollow pipe used for this particular gate?
It might not fly at rate 150k

Sure it is, but the price at 300k is on the high side. U guys can talk better or price but it might fly at 150k base on material price.

Can u tell us how many hollow pipe used for this gate?

Then the intending buyer of this gate should try to measure the width of the gate from the specimen, then we can arrive at a reasonable price since u refused to tell use the number of pipes used?

Yes he can run the water supply pipes in the ceiling void. It's not a problem. But he must pressure test the discharge line very well. And you might likely use a pressure/booster pump to boost the pressure because your first pressure will be low somehow

Abeg, What's the current price of POP cement?

bolu1986:


Ogami


177sqm 85 bags of cement and about 60kg of Filas….

Filas was supposed to be lower but the nogging spacing was a bit much and we can’t compromise…

Kudos to our client who supported us all through…

you can always do this. You don't want to live in prison when development gets to your area. Just raise your fence high enough and beautify the fence with that

Some designs to choose from
