    The key to this is getting all the air out of the hose and making sure it is completely full of water before blocking the end and pulling it out. I had to try about 6 times.
    Push the hose right down and shake it around a bit to get all the bubbles out. When it stays down easily and doesn’t want to float, it is full of water.
    Once I did this it worked a treat! Thanks so much. Managed to change the water in my ice bath 👌

      I tried. The hose needs not be wholly filled with water or liquid. (It is a little hard to fill up the hose.) The key is that the output end of the hose must be closed up fully with your thumb, and when the output end is pulled down, the water level inside the hose at this end must always be lower than the liquid level inside the container. For this reason, if all the liquid inside the container is to be fully siphoned out, the length of the hose must be at least (double the height of the container + the length of hose with air).

    I learned that trick (too late) back in 1979 trying to drain my waterbed from a second floor bedroom. Standing down on the ground trying to suck the water out. Cheeks were touching, spots in front of my eyes - about had an embolism (no jokes please🤣) until my neighbor showed me your trick. Pushed the hose all the way into the mattress, thumb over end, and pulled the hose into the bathroom and into the tub. As long as the outlet is lower than the inlet, and the hose is full - great trick!😎👍

    The cool thing about siphons I found is keeping it primed. Like I have 4 rain barrels (50 gallons each) by my downspout at my barn. Rather than cutting a hole in the bottom of the barrels to connect them together, I put in a hose from the barrel with the downspout into each of the other 3 barrels. As long as both ends of the hose is under water, the water level will be even across all 4 barrels. When it rains and more water goes into the one barrel, the siphons will automatically even out the water level across all 4 (or more if you want).

    • @SaxJockey
      @SaxJockey 2 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      I recently discovered that method too, it's very convenient. To prime the tube I followed another video that filled an inverted hose with water (U shape), plugged the ends, put those into each barrel (containing some water), let the plugs dissolve; balanced Syphon commensed. However, the method shown here looks like the simplest; will try this in future 👍.

    • @barnabyvonrudal1
      @barnabyvonrudal1 ปีที่แล้ว

      What about in really heavy rains would the flow rate between the barrels be enough to stop overflow? Imagine if your downspout is going into only one of the 4 barrels.

    • @MrT------5743
      @MrT------5743 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      @barnabyvonrudal1 Well, when the barrels are not full, there is a buffer zone. So the one barrel can fill to the top, and I have 3 siphon leading out of it to the other 3 barrels. I find that even with a slight rain, all 4 barrels fill completely. So the siphon must almost keep up unless there is a huge rainstorm. Then, I use a 4th sipon to empty these barrels into a 5th barrel, that I then move with a front loader on my tractor to where I need the water.
      The overflow just dumps to the ground where the downspout used to go anyway before the barrels.

He thought I sucked on it, I explained how it was done.

    I saw an automotive TH-camr who said to use water to fill the hose and then when you invert the end with the water in it the pressure pulls the other liquid out. I had the thought, "Wouldn't that work by just dunking the whole hose into your liquid reservoir and capping the end with your thumb?"
    Turns out I was correct! Thanks for proving my head theory almost 10 years ago!

    Thanks a lot man. I have been having all waste water in my apartment building come up through my bathtub. I've spend hours on hours using a bucked to drain the tub. It's overflowing into my apartment so I'm going to use the cheapo shower head that connected to my spicket to syphen it all down my toilet and then clog the tub up so hard the waste water in my building finds a brand new path of weakest resistance.

    I have a small kitchen and shitty kitchen sink and sometimes after I've had people over, there's a big pile of dishes that doesn't fit in the sink but needs to be soaked.
    For that reason, I have a tote, I set it on the counter next to the sink, put dishes in it and run my sprayer over to fill up the tote and soak all the dishes in it.
    Then, when they're done soaking, I would reach in, pull out the dishes, wash them dry them and put them away, and when I'm done, I've got a big tote of water that would be hard to lift and might even fall apart if I tried to move it.
    So instead of that, I just have a 3-4 foot segment of hose and do just like the video and siphon out all the dishwater into the sink.
    Thankfully, I now have a dishwasher, but at the time, that tote basically trippled my sink capacity. A little ingenuity can be a lifesaver when you're broke.

    I am doing this routinely since many years (emptying water containers around the house).
    There is one problem, however, as this is shown - the hose is too short: Then the water level in the container comes down the level of the outlet this will stop working and you may only get out about half of what originally was a full container.
    Therefore, I always use a hose that has a length that is about four times the height of the container. This way I can also lead the water into a direction and distance away from the house.

    One of my coworker did was after keeping the syphon in, cover your mouth over the opening of the tank without any space for air around the pipe, blocking it in. Now blow air, so pressure buildup pushes water through the only opening ( the pipe). Later do as he says to continue its flow
