Maybe not a sprinkler, but what about a soaker hose? I think this is a great idea to reuse the water. A friend of mine used to use a stock tank as a pool for her kids and then move the hose to different areas of her yard. She also would put a little vinegar in the water and use it for a couple of days or so before empting.

I just mainly was looking for a way to use the water twice, instead of just once. As it is now, I fill the pool in the morning, and by evening, I empty it.

But the water won't be any cleaner going back in. ----- Original Message ----- From: Matt To: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com Sent: Saturday, June 28, 2008 9:55 PM Subject: [BlindHandyMan] question sump pump Hey ya, a small sump pump wouldn't have enough power to run a sprinkler would it? I just wonder about this, as it's summer around here and we're filling a kiddy pool for my kids every day and I emptied it tonight with a sump pump. Hate to just pour that water down the drain ya know.
