How does a solar well pump system work?

A solar pump system uses photovoltaic panels to convert sunlight into electricity, which powers a DC or hybrid submersible pump to draw water from your well. These systems can pump directly to a pressure tank, cistern, or livestock trough — all without being connected to the electrical grid.

How much water can a solar pump produce each day?

Output depends on solar exposure, well depth, and system size, but most systems can easily deliver hundreds to thousands of gallons per day — enough for residential, agricultural, or livestock use.

Can a solar pump system run at night or on cloudy days?

Yes. Many setups include battery storage or elevated storage tanks that keep water available during low sunlight. We design every system with Missouri’s weather patterns in mind to ensure consistent, year-round performance.

How long does a solar well pump last?

With proper maintenance, commercial-grade pumps can last 15–20 years or more. B&H installs only top-quality stainless steel and high-efficiency models designed for continuous operation.

Is a solar well pump powerful enough for household or irrigation use?

Absolutely. Modern solar pumps are highly efficient and capable of supplying steady pressure for homes, gardens, livestock, or irrigation systems, even in off-grid locations.
