I am looking to buy a submersible solar well pump. Does anyone have any recommendations? I have been looking at the shurflo 9300, the aquatec SWP 4000 , the sunpump SDS series and the NASS 4 by North American Solar Solutions. It is hard to make any decision because there is very little discussion about these products and companies out there. Thanks!

This is a critically important topic. Mold can ruin houses and high humidity can make a living space horribly uncomfortable. I am happy others are looking into this topic. Thank you to all who contribute.

I know that many different materials can act as humidity buffers due to their porous nature. I am trying to find a very good website on the topic. I will report back once I find it.

Also the copper will help prevent the growth of bad bacteria. CPVC will not work very well anyhow(Ask me how I know).

I was in almost the exact same situation recently. My girlfriend of several years thought that homesteading and permaculture are silly and had less than zero interest in them, also she didn't want children.

Having a big homestead family one day is really important to me so having someone who is incompatible with that just doesn't work. I already have a small farm and off grid house mostly set up, she refused to even visit it with me. Depending on what it is you want to pursue and how flexible he can be, it might not be as big an obstacle as you think.

If you are anything like me, this issue is eating you up inside and upsetting you at a deep level. It was so traumatic to end the relationship but I feel like I have a new lease on life and I have been doing lots of positive things.

If you want mutually exclusive things in life there is no way around it. It won't be easy but you are not being fair to yourself or him.
