This is a demonstration of using a low power air pump can be used to pump water using a simple homemade water pump. The reason for using air powered water pumps is that it is a highly oxygenated form of irrigation for hydroponic grow containers. Systems are easy to build and you can see it works.

  • @MyEyezHurt Hi Thsnk you for commenting. The water is forced up and out the pipe because as some bubbles escape out the bottom of the pipe then water goes up the vacuum and rides the air up and out the tube.. The size of the pipe and the tube going into the pipe are important and the air is about a 1/4 of the size of the pipe. Tip and Laura

  • This is very helpful. I'm still curious how the water is forced up the pvc pipe though.
