You have to first calculate your running hours in a month. Everybody's running time is different. Mine is approximately 7 to 8hours a month. |

NotoriousBiggyS:If it has already been done, do this. Choose a day the tank is empty. Lock the tank. Switch off all your electricity. Note at the meter reading. Pump the tank full. Read the meter again. Calculate the total amount of unit use. Estimate the number of times the machine will be use. Multiply it by that amount plus 7 extra. Calculate a unit to naira and estimate total in naira. There you have it I got an inventory management software for pharmacy in Nigeria 1 Like |

johnpablo541: Everybody's case is not the same. 5k per month may not be enough if they pump water 3 to 4 times a day like my neighbor's house. |

First, set up a control switch from your flat to the machine to make sure no one pumps water without your permission or forgets to turn off the machine when the water is full. Then charge them 2k per month and pump twice a day. Thank me later. 1 Like |

Except PHCN increases electricity tariff in the future, 5k is more than enough even if they pump water every two days. Your major problem is if your neighbours will keep to their side of the agreement after 2 to 3 months. Humans are fickle-minded! |

NotoriousBiggyS: I think I'm in the best position to advise you on this. In my compound, we have a separate prepaid meter for our pumping machine. The machine is 1.5HP which is like the biggest for domestic use. I am in charge of recharging the meter. We are 5 flats and each flats contribute 2k at every recharge, that's 10k. We use 10k worth of unit for about 3 months, sometimes 4 months, pumping twice daily. So 5k worth of units is more than enough for you. You should have some extra left. However, this depends on the Power Distribution company in your area. In my area, they give 21 units per 1,000 Naira. If yours is lower, then 5k might not be enough in a month. 1 Like |

1,000 watts used for one hour @ N100 per kWh x number of hours. That's a rough idea You have to agree on number of hours to pump the water and add charges of kWh consumed per hours and minutes |

geunik: This will fail if he ain't getting regular voltage from the transformer. Pumping machine works faster when d light is full and consumes less unit. When d light is hanging between full and low it will take way longer before the tanks get refilled . |

highoctane: The landlord doesn't stays in the compound, she base abroad, only tenants stays in the compound and moreover I didn't chose this myself, it was impose on me because my flat is the closest to the pumping machine |

NotoriousBiggyS: It's more than enough. I have a similar situation in 6 flats. To find out exact consumption. Note when the tank is empty Switch off every gadget in your house Note the units on your meter Start pumping machine and time it. Till it fill up to know how many minutes it takes to fill up. Then switch off pump and note the meter units balance. Start figure minus Ending figure is units consumed. ( now switch back on your other gadgets) Now check the last time you bought credit for meter. Divide numbers of units by the amount to get the rate in Naira per unit. Then divide the rate in Naira by 100 to get the rate per decimal unit. Multiply the rate per decimal unit by the units consumed to fill the tank and you will have exact amount it takes to fill the tank. In my case I only use PHCN, and do not pump with gen set as my get can't carry pump 1 Like |

Re: How Much Electricity Does Water Pumping Machine Use In a Month? by blissgoddy(m): 5:24pm On Oct 24, 2023 |
In my apartment, we have 6 flats (3 bedrooms) and we contribute 2K per month totalling 12K for the pumping machine prepaid meter, some months the energy gets exhausted before the end of the month and we contribute again some other months the energy could take more than a month. it depends on the availability of power and the usage of the water supply. Before we got a separate prepaid meter for the pumping machine we were rotating the pumping machine on each tenant's prepaid meter on a monthly basis. 1 Like |

It's a good idea to inform them before accepting the proposal that each flat should take turns to pump water monthly for the next four months. This way, everyone can get a shared experience of the cost and whoever wants to take that responsibility will know, while others will also have an understanding of what the average price could be. |

They gave you free money. You won't need up to that in 6 months. If it filled up in 1to 2 hours it will consume like 1-2units of your units. Collect 500 self from them just been a good man. I pump for 4 flat in my place and they pay 500. |

0.75HP Surface Pump Will Fill Big Storex Tank In 2hrs By Stopping The Flow Of Water Into House That Is 0.5KwH * 2 =1.2KwH And U Pump 2ce A Week That 3KwH *5 = 15KwH... If U Use Submersible Pump U Will Be Using Almost The Same That One Will Fill Big Storex Under 20 Min... So More Or Less The Same... |
