Exactly my thoughts having used a pump for domestic water for 25 years there is quite a degree of vibration from the pumps even without that it was the proximity of the power to the steel that worried me.
Great video Guy’s, your making huge Progress with Brupeg when you look what you’ve all achieved in the past year it colossal Great Job 👏 All the best to you all from us two in England
Laminar flow is what they use in hospitals. A large curving elbow helps stop cavitation. Spiral piping also is great. Had LPG van & spiral hose into carbe made it pur. Have a electrical motor similiar & centrifugal pump section is all plastic. Water industry uses stainless. Longer spiral sections help to save centrafugal pump impellers.
That tank glass allows for an onboard fish take. Hell you could use it like a Canary in a Coal mine. Put fish in the tank, if they die that water's foul. LOL
Your water tanks look amazing to me. My family operated workboats in the Gulf of Mexico, from the 60’s through the late eighties and the water tanks were lined with grease. I don’t remember exactly what it was but it was pretty expensive. Each year the crews would open the manholes and inspect the tanks. There was never any rust but as our boats were idle over winter the tanks got slimy and had to be cleaned and re-greased. The grease came in 5 gallon drums and had to be heated and sprayed on to the walls of the tanks. Once the grease cooled it was super thick an did not mix with the water. Surprisingly the water tested safe and tasted great in our docks. However they were usually stationed at Remote docks in South Louisiana where the potable water had a sulfur content and smelled of rotten eggs. Fortunately the guys made a lot of Kool-Aid to mask the smell.
Looking good. A couple observations. 1 - wire chaffing of the pump power cord. 2 - some sort of plug in that open ball valve. 3 - have you considered a semi-permanent extension pipe on the deck where you fill water? I think you’re gonna run the risk of debris from the deck getting inside the tank each time you remove the cap to fill. Keep up the great work
For drinking (and cooking) water in the kitchen I'd high;ly recommend getting a Reverse Osmosis water filter. A good 5-stage RO has good Carbon Filtration before the membrane, and the membrane filters down to around 0,001 microns. Perfectly pure and clean drinking water. You can also use a little Chlorine to clear out a tank with some algae growth, just add a carbon filter cartridge as your second existing filter to remove the CL2 before it goes into the boat system.
The problem with a system like that is it also removes the minerals in the water that you want left. They’d have to also add a mineral restoration cartridge.
R.O. System sounds good, But is quite a system to maintain, expensive, takes up real estatement ( =costly on a ship) and not realy required when you have enough tankage. When you can not store sufficient fresh water, than “a means of water making” comes into play. Commercial ships have big watertanks, and watermakers, to make fresh water. Not to “make specific water for the galley.
I worked at a commercial port in WA. It was common for the vessels to fill their water tanks for free at the port and then sell the water at the not port (depending on where they were going). Good video
I am just playing with you guys. Yes, I said holy crap. You didn’t get that in the water yet. But as we know your project is a project and it’s a lifestyle. It’s what you and your lovely wife want to do enjoy and you guys are living your dream and that’s awesome.❤
Would dearly love to be back on your Patreon. Had to drop off a few months ago to dodge a bankruptcy missile that came out of nowhere. Whatever you've heard about American health care, it's that bad, and it might be worse than that, but at least I still have my wife. I look forward to a day I can return to the crew. Glad to see Brupeg has been doing well without me. 👍
Reminded me of my first ship and my first New Year away. On New Year eve day we had the job of cement washing one of the fresh water tanks. It eventually dissolved into a cement wash water fight. This resulted on a good thick coat of cement wash on the steel of the tank which prevented rust from tainting the water. However, even after a long shower we were still washing away cement from every orifice for days afterwards. That said we went on to have a good celebration of the New Year afterwards.
A pressure gauge prior to and after filter are a good way to monitor filters, didn’t see a pressure balancing tank in the system, you will definitely want to add one to minimize pump run times and pressure surges.
For whatever it is worth the plumber in me says always plug any valves (such as the emergency fill opening on water pump suction) with a either a plug or nipple and cap. Saves catastrophe when valve is opening by accident or by ignorance. Just saying.
Should have a check valve in the form of a flapper in the pump inlet so the pump impeller is never without water. That pump should still draw up water & self prime from that level even without.
Living rural with the same pump slightly above our tank, never had issues with lost prime. I think the regulator helps with that. Also if you think tank > pump > tap, that entire system should always be pressurised as long as the pump is powered and so no option for air to get into the system and the pump no longer be primed
If you end up draining the tank completely then that’s another story though. In that case those red buttons are really useful to burp the system and let the water pressure fill the pump (provided the water level is higher than the pump) to get back prime
If you plan on running in cold climates I would highly recommend installing a small heater in the cofferdam to help prevent the pump and pipes from freezing
Yeah that's what I noticed. I think I have been unsubscribed. Been a subscriber for a while and noticed that I wasn't up on the wall . I figured you guys pulled me down. But still week in week out I still watch.

You'll need a back flow/one way flow valve inline at your toilet cistern so that area doesn't possibly contaminate your drinking water. People had health issues connecting bidets & bum washers to their household water supply during the great toilet paper wars & famine.
Yeah we have a solenoid valve in that line as the tootle is design to pull seawater and without the valve the pressure keeps it flushing. It’s a marine toilet without a cistern
@@ProjectBrupeg I'll send you some rolls of T.P with Greta' Thunberg's face on it if you want. I find it's a bit rough on skin & some have an allergic reaction to even the sight of it.
Hi. Have you thought about mounting or adhering a mirror to the tank wall, opposite the window? The light reflecting back through the water might be informative. Maybe.. 🤔
Dame, looking in them tanks. They to my eye have a lot of un baffled volume, just thinking about free surface effects. Some food grade polypropylene boards sprung inside (no fixings etc) to moderate the slosh etc.
For long term water storage, one ounce of Calcium Hypochlorite will treat 6000 gallons (over 22,000 liters) of potable water. It will prevent mold and bacterial growth, saving having to open and scrub the tanks...
When you showed the tank fill with water . You should have put a plastic Nemo fish in the tank. 😂 Now can you build a threaded fitting into supply water tank with a air valve. So no foreign material like bugs / dirt can't fall in the tank.🤔
Check valves on the suction side of the pump for each tank are necessary to prevent losing the pumps prime. Also that is a lot of ballast weight in water. do you think you need a high capacity transfer pump between the tanks to transfer water between the tanks at sea?
You should provide some method of residual disinfection for your water storage, especially if you are using watermakers in the future. Have a look at MSN 1845, which is the British Government legislation for the provision and storage of water on board shipping. Lots of good guidelines and good practice for the provision of clean water. Possibly consider a charcoal filter st some point post pump to remove any stale smell in the water. Great job guys, you are really smashing it!
You should have used agricultural poly blue line (metric) pipe & fittings for your suction & other plumbing. Much easier to fit. handles suction & repair if needed.
Poly is only really an Aussie thing, the rest of the world doesn't seem to like it, you won't get spares easy, I'd agree though it's very easy to work with and would prob never fail, till that one time...
@@fowletm1992 Those hoses he used are going to go as hard as a rock in quick time. Atleast with polypipe, especially blueline you can dis-assemble easily & make any shape you need. Not hard to store a couple of meters of it onboard & some 1-1/2" greenline makes a great didgeridoo. Philmac fittings are the business, strong & super reliable. I've used & re-used them over the decades & only had other brand fitting fail.
If you find you have algae growing in those tanks you could utilise the clear Perspex and mount UV lights on the outside. Plus it would look pretty damn cool.
Very interesting job. If your pump fails do you have a way of getting water out of tanks until it is repaired? I ask under principle of what can fail will fail. Great work.
Damo, can that pump actually lift water on the suction side? Usually that type is mounted down low I've noticed. I can imagine the water going below the level of the pump and it struggling. I could well be wrong of course.
Any concerns with a check valve to prevent cross feeding and cross contamination of the tanks? A check valve at the tank only allowing water to leave the tank may be cheap insurance.
We did think about that but we want the ability to transfer water using gravity to even our boat trim. With the current set up we can do they by opening both ball valves and letting the water settle.
@@dustyfarmer They would actually be better off running both at the same time. One line is to small and will be an under flow (starvation) condition for the pump.

Just a Tip/Warning for people considering transparent sight window for an install in different location. It can actually be counter productive to let light into a water tank, as it helps certain things grow. (Probably not An issue for Brupeg in this case since it's in a sealed off room already. XD
I can tell you for a fact that crystal clear, cool, running mountain stream water contains Clampybacter bacteria which is really good for weight loss & shooting shit through the eye of a needle at 40 meters for two weeks until you get the test results back & antibiotics. Don't ask me how I know.

This may be a stupid question but why not put a prop shaft between the gearbox and the final drive to the prop. Trying to line that all up on the engine seems to be a recipe for a vibration?
looks good. you may want to mitigate chafing on the electrical wires leaving the pump
Exactly my thoughts having used a pump for domestic water for 25 years there is quite a degree of vibration from the pumps even without that it was the proximity of the power to the steel that worried me.

boat work
Your water tanks look amazing to me. My family operated workboats in the Gulf of Mexico, from the 60’s through the late eighties and the water tanks were lined with grease. I don’t remember exactly what it was but it was pretty expensive. Each year the crews would open the manholes and inspect the tanks. There was never any rust but as our boats were idle over winter the tanks got slimy and had to be cleaned and re-greased. The grease came in 5 gallon drums and had to be heated and sprayed on to the walls of the tanks. Once the grease cooled it was super thick an did not mix with the water. Surprisingly the water tested safe and tasted great in our docks. However they were usually stationed at Remote docks in South Louisiana where the potable water had a sulfur content and smelled of rotten eggs. Fortunately the guys made a lot of Kool-Aid to mask the smell.
Yes there is a non toxic grease I used on water valves.
That's some impressive water tankage. Should drop a few pigpong balls in to make it easier to see the level 😂
This project is fast tracking SV Seeker !
Nice! The videos with hoses / fittings / ball valves / etc are my fav 😊
Looking good. A couple observations. 1 - wire chaffing of the pump power cord. 2 - some sort of plug in that open ball valve. 3 - have you considered a semi-permanent extension pipe on the deck where you fill water? I think you’re gonna run the risk of debris from the deck getting inside the tank each time you remove the cap to fill. Keep up the great work
There isn't any debris at sea,first wave will clean it up
Agreed. Extend the fill pipe to just under the rail.

Hey mate, you’ll need to put check valves at the outlet of the tanks to keep your pump primed when the water falls below the height of the pump
Should have a check valve in the form of a flapper in the pump inlet so the pump impeller is never without water. That pump should still draw up water & self prime from that level even without.
Living rural with the same pump slightly above our tank, never had issues with lost prime. I think the regulator helps with that.

I’d be more concerned about a check valve to prevent cross feeding the tanks to keep them separated in case of contamination.
And you should add a valve on the out put side of the filters or you will get all the water that was pumped to top side when changing the filters
If you plan on running in cold climates I would highly recommend installing a small heater in the cofferdam to help prevent the pump and pipes from freezing
Thanks for that. Will add it to the list

@@buellb0y ya stupid autocorrect
@@ProjectBrupeg Could use some of the waste heat from the engines to keep the tanks from getting too cold come to think of it.
It is nice to have a DC pump in line as well. 12 or 24V in case you loose AC voltage. Just T is in after the AC pump.
If you add the DC pump put it down low, It is a bear to prime those big pumps if the water level in the tank is below the pump.
Great Job. The windows are a good idea.

Perhaps it's better to append the bolt/washer pair by spring washer since the pump by its very nature create vibrations.
16:52 Every tool has a hammer side. 🙂 And you have a nasty little chafe point between the top cable of the pump and the bulk head. 😞
You should never feed a pump with an inlet line smaller than the inlet size of the pump. Asking for trouble!
True, but they are probably only running one tap at a time so the output flow rate won't max out the inlet flow.
@@dustyfarmer They would actually be better off running both at the same time. One line is to small and will be an under flow (starvation) condition for the pump.
How are you going to use a pressure equaliser on the tank inlet.

Don't you need a pressure vessel so they pump doesn't cycle on and off all the time?
Ideally you would have a pressure tank after the pump. A small one would suffice.
There generally not needed with household sized pumps with a controller if you can live with the dip in pressure when a valve is opened.
And the dip in pressure on this pump isn’t noticeable
