requires only moderate DIY skills to install and has little ongoing maintenance
requirements.
The iSOLAR PDP3 can be installed down a bore, in a tank or fitted to a pontoon to
supply from an open body of water.
No more external energy costs! Just harvest the sun to move your water.
While this kit is very simple, please read this manual fully and carefully before you start.
