Safe Water With Covid

Post by Saxomasaurus » Sun Jul 31, 2022 5:55 pm

Hey techies!

We’re trying to figure out how to provide a safe water supply in the age of Covid. We’ve typically run a fill station as a bathroom sink, with a pressure pump feed from a standard supply tank. Looking for a solution which eliminates the need for human process which may or may not happen. Looking to my fellow nerds before I try to envision a solution from scratch. Thanks!

I've rigged up a foot pump using a boat fuel bulb in the past. Here's some online photos. The feed end of the tube I would put in a gallon or 2 1/2 gallon water jug. And a tarp under to contain water leak or splash.
