Huge amounts of water can be saved in rain barrels, however, most of that water is usually distributed using a watering can!

Wouldn't it be easier if you could use a hose? Perhaps on a vegetable patch, raised beds or even a greenhouse or polytunnel full of exotic plants and herbs?

And yet you can do this if you have a simple hand pump, like the HiRiser® - no electricity or complicated installation required. Additionally, if you want to save mains water, it can connect directly to drip irrigation systems or soaker hoses.

Use it to improve existing watering arrangements, increase your water storage capacity or perhaps just make things easier for yourself!

The HiRiser® Hand Pump offers you more choices with what you can do with water. Here are a few of the benefits it offers;

Add to rainwater storage capacity by pumping water to a distant tank or greenhouse. If it's also elevated it will create a pressurised water supply for hoses and raised beds.

Easier access to water - no need to carry heavy watering cans or hoses long distances.

Supply rainwater to raised beds, hoses and drip irrigation systems - the HiRiser® can connect directly into a drip irrigation system or soaker hose, Alternatively, a header tank can be used to provide water when you need it.

Increased water pressure helps in situations where gravity is insufficient, thereby increasing distances water can be transported.

Save mains water and use rainwater for things like washing your patio or garden furniture.

Robust and durable construction. Made from recycled plastic and having only one moving part (a metal roller bearing which does not come in contact with the fluid) means that the pump should last a lifetime!

The HiRiser® can also raise water up to a height of 7m and can be used for all rainwater harvesting applications (flushing toilets, laundry, washing cars, cleaning patios, etc.) Please note that rainwater is not suitable for drinking without the correct filtration and purification equipment.
