- My Solar powered Pool pump, filter, lights, & battery back up was a great investment. Living efficiently and going green are two of my favorite things and this helps with both. This is one more thing that helps me control monthly cost and lets me live a dream life here in the Philippines.

Bro, I'm binge watching you live in the dream . You are a Strait legend.🇵🇭🇺🇸💪🏻
I appreciate that!
Beautiful pool brother!!!
Thank you
Wow Cory! Perfect Set-up!
I was thinking of tying in my pool to my house's oversized grid tied solar system . It works but your MPPT controller designed for pools! GAME CHANGER! We discussed this before but I get it now! It's simply Better the way you did it! My pool will be set up the same way with lights ... The 4 x 12V batteries that are series connected to achieve your 48V requirement for the pump! Absolute genius! BTW, are those lead acid batteries? Guess you bought those in the Philippines? Thanks! I will copy you! Salamat PO!
Yes these are lead acid batteries or you’re not something that I’m a big fan of or recommend. Still waiting for the delivery for the lithium but I had these left over to try it. But these locally cheap so it wasn’t really a big deal. Doesn’t hurt to have additional back-ups anyways! Very very happy with the set up as it’s 9 AM over here right now and raining and the pump is doing fantastic.
Thanks Buddy. This is incredibly useful to me and my current build in Phil. I had been looking for a system just like this.............
Couple great options that are dc that can really help you.
was thinking about you when I read the news on an earthquake in the Philippines, hope everything is ok!
Yes we are doing great and thank you for asking. I heard about that as well but I don’t watch the news it seems to of been north of Manila.
Outstanding setup. Hope you give a run down on your aquponic garden setup. Thank you for sharing.
Starting that next week actually. To many projects going on at once and trying to finish some of them prior to starting more.
We always enjoy your videos!
Thank you!
Thanks for the information on your solar systems.. still waiting for your longer based analysis on main system savings. I am at the start of building two homes in Luzon. One main home and the other a smaller structure. I have calculated my electric usage from my prior home in Florida and it would range, at Philippines price between $980 and $350, (2273 KWH to 1453 KWH) respectively per month! Although I will not be using Central Air in the Philippines, the 1453 KWH is from the month of Feb when no AC or heat was used. In my rental last month in Iraga City I used 255KWH this month at @ $180 US (15.27p/KWH) with limited use of one small window AC. My decision on solar has changed from a want to a need. Waiting for your numbers. (FloridaMan Journey)
Wow, it sounds like it is definitely a need for you another one. I can tell you my first bill came out to $70 compared to an expected $180. But that’s still nowhere near what you were spending.
Wow nice beautiful place area
Just in the process of building my own house right now and i must say your videos have really encouraged me to go for solar once the construction is done. Thanks
I’m a big proponent of going solar whenever you have enough daily sunlight and your roof is at a decent angle. Living in Alaska for example it usually doesn’t make sense because of the sunlight. And a lot of times the roof angle will be in the opposite direction of where you want it. But if you’re able to get panels on your roof angled correctly or even on stilts on your roof then that’s the way to go. Specially, in the Philippines seeing that it cost so much!
Great video thank you!! I live in Central America and I am considering your set up. What filter system do you use ? Sand ? or just the small filter on the pump ?
Sand
I have 500watts vevor solar pump.I bought 180$ for two 550watts Solar panel in the Philippines this year and because solar over powered i put 12v with 18aH to run my 330gal/hour with 20 watts bestway pump thru inverter to run at night.
Nice!
Every question that came into my head while watching the video you answered. This was great to watch and fascinating. The way you've set it up is a fantastic investment. I'm glad you took some night shots too, it's stunning with the lights on.
One question, did you order the pumps and panels while you were in the US and then box and ship them over to PH with the rest of your things? I'd like to do something similar as have several larger high value items (guitars etc), however I'm in the UK and heard some stories about boxes going missing during the journey over? This would be a concern for me and wondered how you handled it?
Again, awesome video, it's been fantastic seeing it all come together.
Thank you for the positive comment I really appreciate it. Yes, I purchased most of this in the states prior to leaving. I had shipped everything over using LBC. I use ratchet straps on all the boxes so I would know if they were opened or not. Out of the 18 boxes that I sent nothing was missing, damaged, lost, or even opened. I can’t speak or vouch for another company but the LBC branch in Chicago did an excellent job helping me.
They even shipped some solar panels for me that I haven’t put in any of the videos yet. I had some extra and I’m going to use them on the fishpond and hydroponic system.
Call does look great with the lights on. Funny part is I only have a third of the lights in and I have not installed the ones in the fountain yet. So more to come!
your building a house in the Philippines videos have definitely inspired my wife and I. Mostly me because we will be doing that very soon. We will rent there until we fine some open land in and outside the Dumaguete area. Thank you both and can you also do a video on the new building system SRC Panels which is close to you.
Thank you. Why Duma though?
Thanks for your vlog. Are u in davao?
My husband and I will b retiring in davao few years from now. Hope we gonna meet u there...
We are located on Negros island above Dumaguete city. We want to visit Davao at some point!
Oh forgot to say, we will celebrate our 16 years married this month. Time flies. Life only happens once in a lifetime! Enjoy
DC small air conditioners make a lot of sense too, especially for side buildings or suites. You basically just need ac in those places when it's bright and hot. Add a couple 500w panels directly above it.
Did that to my pool pump actually to avoid any monthly electrical cost.
Is that a variable-speed pool pump? Do you Creepy Crawley? I love your channel BTW.
Yes, it speeds up as the sun comes out of clouds or over the mountains
Had a 6.5 KW system in Australia fully off grid, 8 years paid zero for power,"deep cell cycle batteries meant to last 15 yrs lasted 25yrs" 950mha X 4 batteries - topped up with disstilled water which is free also Yeah I know that's some old school stuff" And Your a very smart man! Mains, Solar, Backup, You were either in the boy scouts or in the Military Or Your just a thinker! 😀LOVE your channel Been watching quietly forever and we only follow sub to people who have their "heads together" Mains solar is awesome and-- standalone panels for lights etc - I Pull them apart and run silicone around them to seal them, You can always pull them apart internal batteries can be replaced cheap as and no load on your other stuff but 6KW LOVE YOUR WORK! 😎 P.S if you try that here in the city 3KW is the limit because they don't want people making power that's too much for the grid! 🤣Best of luck, Love it! You make too much sense🙏😎 P.S Common sense is hard for some.
Nice! and thank you 🙂
Wow. Nice pool
Thank you!
Where did you get this pump in the Phillipines? Did you ship it from the states? Awesome setup Cory!
Amazon in the states and shipped it LBC for $62!
Very useful episode today...Solar is definitely the way to go for a pool in the PH, IMO...I've bookmarked this...Thanks!
👍😎👍
Thank you and yes it really is with electricity cost here.
Great video!
Thank you!
Cory, this is awesome! I would consider moving to the Philipphenes if I could get some reasonable air conditioning. You can't do that because electricity is so high. If solar paneling could be used for air conditioning, maybe it would be reasonable. What do you think Cory?
What size Honda generator did you ship over? Specs etc? Assuming it was Honda as I think you said in another video, thanks!
This might be a silly question but are you needing to heat your pool at all?
I was not before but with the shade netting I might. It felt chilly this morning lol
Hello,
We have a Place In Alcantara, Cebu. I am enjoying your videos. Can you do a Follow up on your Solar Poo Pump. The reviews I read on Amazon are staying that the charge controller doesn't really charge the Batteries. Can you include a more in-depth review of how you have the wires are terminated on the Controller. Thanks , Mary Ann and James
They only added enough solar panels to power the pump and did not add extra. My pump requires 500w so I have 900w of panels up there so the extra will charge the batteries.
@@ItsMe_Philippines Thank you, Did you purchase the 72 Volt model or the 48 Volt Model, and how many batteries and what Amp Hr did they install?
Hi Corey, I am really enjoying seeing your use of solar energy. Here is one for you, solar powered Air Conditioning. Tech Ingredients gets into AC quite a bit and it looks like one hell of a project to me but you have done other projects that appear more complicated than that.
th-cam.com/users/results?search_query=tech+ingredients
BTW a interesting low power 12V water pump can be found
th-cam.com/video/gaGRUTSLz_s/w-d-xo.html
Not trying to tell you how to do things but we can all learn from others. Looks like you are living my dream but I might just start living it by years end. Are you in that location where the temperatures tend to range from 65 to 87F or something like that? If so is that due to ocean breeze? That sounds very near perfect to me.
I just commented on another video asking about these panels.. What controller did you use and batteries etc if you have a moment that would be great
Just responded my friend. Thanks for the comment
Nice setup! Im working on a similar setup. What is the model for the solar panel disconnect you used that you have mounted right next to the controller?
I believe you just looking at the breaker next to the four batteries
Thanks. Another question. Does the controller have a timer built inside? Can you setup the controller to run only a couple of hours? Or do you need an external timer?
Awesome set up guys. Godspeed!
Thank you 🙏
Hello sir I am going to do the exact same set that you have and I am actually looking to do the same thing so I have back up battery where did you purchase your batteries if you have the link and can you be able to share a link of how you learned how to sequence the batteries and if I need any converters.. great video btw I watched three times haha
I live in the Philippines so no website links here my friend. Just Google “batteries in parallel vs series” so you know how to run yours.
@@ItsMe_Philippines ok so what kind of size batteries do you run ? I think I’d need like 4 as well to run at night as well . Just needed to know size of your batteries
Very nice! What batteries did you use?
Changed them after the video to lithium
Such a great design and build, hope to get updates on your pool down the road too. Amazing set up my friend!
Thank you
Bro ever thought of starting a small business in this field for us that don't know the difference between a screw driver and a hammer. I've always worked with a pen and really regret it now hehe. Do your thing player. Nyc in da house✌🏽
I contemplated starting a second channel just doing DIY project type stuff. I wouldn’t want to record all my builds and put it on this channel as it would change the direction of it. The job I had all my life was actually designing facilities and explaining the probability to the bank to get it approved. So I always try to think about an organized and sustainable way to give the best long-term plan.
@@ItsMe_Philippines i don't even want to say what i pay here for electricity. Maybe down the road you'll decide to start a business and I'll be your first costumer 🤞🏼✌🏼
Pretty awesome seeing in the pool enjoying the good stuff! Very wise to look at things that are not adding to a monthly bill or towards your overall goal. For a young man, you have really done very well. Very curious who or what in your life might have been the biggest influence in this powerful approach because for so many they get lost in the never ending cycle of buying and paying for things that keep them tied or shall we say enslaved. You broke free and have done very well.
I'm done with the rat race!
Not sure if you have a battery storage system for saving extra .. But that can be one addition later.. Oh you said later you do have a battery system.. Ok. My bad
Yes sir I do
You should also have a pressure gauge before the pump and one after the pump ?
Yes, have on on the filter and the line going to the pump.
Nice solar setup, can you recommend a setup for a whole house? I will be starting to build a house in maybe late May or early June in Danao City Cebu. Thank you
Where did you buy the powerbank? Specs
And also where connected to and how
Thanks
4 X 12v/50ah batteries and I made the bank. Inside of the charge controller it has two terminals listed B+ and B- for battery backup.
Finally!!! I saw the upload last time but you took it down. It looks awesome!
Thank you! One day at a time!
Nice made 👍
But for me to life there with this crazy noise of roosters, dogs and imagination of karaoke 🙉 no way 👎
I really like that you are focused on efficiency.. 👍 taking advantage of Solar is a way to go! Right on! We're thinking of doing similar but with natural swimming ponds. Solar water pump going up and studying the way beavers manipulate water coming down.
Smart!
@ItsMe_Philippines thanks. Mini hydro electric turbines on the way down. Water reservoir ponds many purposes as a battery. Stored energy. 😉
What a sweet setup. I wished I had known about this before I put a $1200 variable speed Pentair pump on my rental home a couple of years ago. I don't pay the power but still that's a kick ass system. This video is a year old, I'm curious to know how it's been working for you over the year.
It’s still working great although we did add a very small second pump. The only reason why is cause we wanted to keep the circulation going, but have the option of just turning on the waterfall at night. So I got a small .2 hp pump just for the waterfall, so we can have that on when we’re eating dinner and relaxing or have people over but we’re not gonna have to run the whole pump with the filter.
I understand that you had static speed pump in the USA. When I built my pool in 2008 in the USA I choose a Pentair variable speed pump. Not very noisy at the right efficiency and it could cover my entire 26k gallon pool.
Interesting
I live in Oregon my wife is from the Philippines we have a beach property in the province of Quezon (Mulinay)
I am planning a small pool build that is filled with the sea water and a solar pump..
Corrosion and scale build up are some of my primary concerns..
I would like more than 2 panels (more like 6-12) and a battery for a power buffer and some night time use..
Not sure how far i can take this project but I really like your set-up and its inspiring.. thank you for sharing..
Great to hear more people doing the same thing. Running a pump 12 months a year from electricity at Philippines prices is not ideal. Solar is the way!
Thank you for watching
Hay mate, you can buy systems out of Australia that can adjust the speed of your pumps, you can slow them down without loosing efficiency. I put them in and save a fortune, sorry forgot the company name
Very interesting, I’ll look into that. Probably switching over the well pump next or just adding a timer.
Great video
Thank you
The $140.00 a month of electric bill in US before. Now it's $400 something a month. People said, how are we going to pay for electric bill? Somebody suggested to make payments.
Things are getting crazy expensive
I just watched one of your videos. New subscriber. I would like to say that the Philippines saved my life via a first time married at 49. I can relate. My wife won’t leave California because Philippines is too hot. I look forward to watching more. Thanks
Thank you!
Hey Cory. I see the hair is coming along nicely. It’s brilliant what your doing with the pool. So smart putting it to solar…well done mate…Hi Raquel …❤️
Great investment!
Since you’re in the Philippines, I suggest you use Lazada instead of Amazon. Way way cheaper
True
My wife and came to New York in 1991, we have 2 kids who are now on their own. We are planning to build a house in Northern Philippines in 2029 and we are also planning to get a solar power for the house. At first i was planning to get a generator but it seems like in terms of practicality solar is the way to go.
Does not hurt to have both!
Hello from France. Can you send me your electric plan according the pump , the pump controller , the batteries and the lights ? i have a JP19-31 1200 WATTS POOL PUMP DC
No, sorry you have a different set up. You need to reach out to the pump company like I did so their support team can help you.
Wow that’s amazing! Never thought about a dc pump. I’ll have to look into this! Thank you
Thank you and we are very happy with it!
Hi Cory! It's been a year since you filmed this, is everything still working well? If so, we're going to duplicate in our house in San Fernando. Great job!! Thanks!!
Yes! Thank you
Cory I have a friend up near Sacramento, that had almost identical water fall, and they had copper sheeting put on the face of it...its stunning...might consider...not sure the cost there, but with the water staining it , Gorgeous....thank you again and I took note of the luggage trolley in the other video...I own identical one and I will pack it...thank you!! Great job as always!
Happy to help! And thank you for the waterfall idea, I’ll look at options over here. Thanks for watching 😊
This is the way
Too few lights in your pool. But still looks nice
I’m wondering why you didn’t just add a couple of panels to the house system and then use an AC powered pump with it connected to a circuit on the house?
I have a second one set up that way as a back up. However, when I designed the pool and bought the pump I did not know what solar package I was going with. Covid lock down over here so wanted to play it safe. I'm much happier with the DC pump anyways because it's very efficient, quite, and works great.
That's exactly what I'm trying to do here in Georgia and our land in Cebu. Thank you for the information! By the way, I am from Chicago too! Just moved to Georgia because I just retired.
Nice! Georgia is a beautiful state outside of Atlanta anyways. What part of Cebu will you be in? I don’t travel up to the city too often but the lower half of the island has some beautiful beaches and waterfalls.
@@ItsMe_Philippines our place is in Ginatilan. Inambakan falls is not to far from us.
You have done a great job with your house. I think it is about time for a Filipina pool party.
I like this guy
Amazing beautiful solar pool thanks for sharing
Thank you for watching
Thanks for making this video. Cleared everything up for my husband he is finally on board. Happy anniversary too.
You are very welcome and tell your husband to shoot me an email if he has any questions.
Looks like you are all in best wishes
Not even in the minute in the video and I can tell you already if you hear your pool pump starting like a jet like this is prime your pool pump otherwise you’re killing more life of that Pump
I'm aware, I've had pools my whole life, thank you.
I plan to install this type of system when we move over to Laoag City.
Smart man!
What is the average temp of the pool? (F & C for those of us that don't get farenheight)
Had to watch this again. Very motivating and about to order this unit! Thank you
Thank you
… efficient and plan everything out 👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you!
That is very good my friend you just give me an idea because my wife she is interested to build a swimming pool and I am interested to build my fish pond in Philippines 😂 So that is very good looking forward to see some more videos can you buy that pump in the Philippines also or I would have to buy it and ship it over let me know thank you very much
I’m honestly not sure if you could buy that pump in the Philippines. I’m sure Amazon could ship it over here for you. I wanted to play it safe so I bought it in the states and then I shipped it over myself. I just put it in a standard LBC box and had her clothing packed around it and it worked perfect when I got here.
Thank you very much my friend
Did you stay in the US and build your house there
When i lived in Clearwater Florida i just ran big black pipes over the roof and it heated the pool,in winter.but i see you want the waterfall,very nice Cory
Cory, I have been noticing in a few of your videos the broken glass on the top of your walls. Is that for security of intruders or keep animals from getting on and over the wall? Enjoy the pool and those savings. Have a wonderful life.
Thank you, the contractor just did that naturally, because apparently they do it on all the walls for security reasons.
@@ItsMe_Philippines Cory thank you for responding to my nosiness. Your dad raised a level headed and wise young man.
Unfortunately, it works great for security, but it is 100% illegal here. If someone gets hurt breaking into your house, you, ridiculously, will end up in court. Just a heads up.
Don't burn up the pump design a prime and pump, dry pumps fail.
Good call 👍🏻
I have the same setup (pump and panels) Works great.
Nice! Very happy with ours
Any new improvements to your gym you want to show?
Couple small items I’ll add in the next video. Decided to build a power rack also.
how many watts is your total system?
This one is 1,000
Corey you pool came out awesome! Great upload!
Thank you! Hard work pays off!
That sounds like a jet taking off.
Yes it does!
If you shave your head you will look 15 years younger and way better. That hair line needs to go
Thank you for your opinion on how another man should look.
@ItsMe_Philippines just looks like you are trying too hard to be young and muscular like you are only doing it cause you were overweight or picked on in high-school. Shave the head
so under voltage is ok? won't burn out the motors?
The voltage stays the same, the motor will get slower as the wattage lowers
do you have to ground the panels/pump to a grounding rod?
You should.....
Mabuhay
Cory, great news, great job ♥♥
We love having a zero cost pool every month!
Thanks for the video!!!
Thank you for watching
Could i get the link to everything?
Yes, links are in the video description
Link for batteries?
No link, bought them locally
Omg solar pool epic
It works great and zero running cost!
That’s awesome info. I really want to move to the Philippines. But I’ve seen where some places it says you need to be vaccinated. Yet at other places it says you can quarantine 14 days. Does anyone have accurate information on this?
Yeah, my buddy is there now visiting his fiance,, he said you do not need a vax or quarantine but you do need a negative test results within 24hours of arrival and you are fine..
@@portlandlocalchurch8168 that’s excellent news! Thank you for sharing!

Embrace your balding problem! Mine started in my thirties! Just cut it pff
My first 25 videos I was bald. Wife asked me to grow it when we moved
I don't have a problem with the solar system,but my problem is, if you had to change or do maintenance on the water pump,you don,t have no shut off water valves near the pump.How would you shut off the water ?
The shut off valve is right before the pump because I didn’t know which side the pump would be on.
more vlog for your solar set-up sir, i am starting mine too recently...:)
Will do my friend! Should have my next bill in this week so I have enough data to go by.
Wait, Corey...it's not sunny here 12 months of the year. We have 2 seasons, the wet and the dry seasons. Rain and shine. There may be some sunny days during the rainy season but many days will be cloudy.
Yes I understand that I’ve experienced plenty of rainy seasons here. But even during rainy/cloudy days the solar is still working it’s just not 100%. Which is why I oversized the panels so even on those days it still operates great. It was very dark and cloudy today and the pumpkin dawn around 9 AM
Awesome Job
Thank you
Great vids, man. . .Just a quick bit of advice- I think you would look great if you shaved your head- you have the build for it!
Hahaha to funny! I’ve had my head shaved since I joined the service back in 2000. My wife asked me to grow it out when I retire to see how it looked. I find it funny because I always lived in a cold involvement with a shaved head and now I’m over here with hair 😂🏝🇵🇭
@@ItsMe_Philippines Good stuff! Definitely go with what the Mrs. suggests! Love the vids, man.
Smart set up!
Thank you!
Your backyard would look even brighter and bigger if you painted the concrete fence.
That’s on our list!
Is that a heated pool? I think those solar heater in the US are the ones you are speaking of. Water that just goes through the black hose that gets pump into the hoses that goes up the roof solar panel to get heated up by the sun then goes back to the pool. I did not like that either.
So far the pool with Matt she did because it hasn’t ever gotten cold. It’s in the sun most of the day and it hasn’t gone below 70 over here. But yes the solar powered heaters is what I’m referring to when I was trying to Google “solar power pool.”
If you need to replace the water from the pool, how will you drain it and where will the drained water go?
There is a drain at the bottom of the pool that goes to the exterior of the waterfall. It has an on and off out so we can hook it up to the pump to pull it out or we can use our submersible pump. Our house along with three others and a local business have drainage hooked up because of the angle of the road.
Excellent video! Your information is great and gave me things to consider when designing my pool.
Thank you and there is plenty of great dc/solar options to keep cost down.
