Guys,
Is there anyone had experience pumping water with windmill as power source.
I need someone to advise me a website or books about pumping water with windmill.
It is not a big one, I just need to pump water with suction head 25 meters pumps to a 3000 liters tank, for home use.

Thanks in advance
Pitat

I'm looking for [old] farm windmill reference materials/designs to aid in reconstruction of a typical old southwestern ontario farm windmill.

Any thoughts?
 
shamca: Other than the old Audels Plumbers & Steamfitters Guide 3, you might try the website The info I have is that it's operated by Bob Budd in Goderich Ontario, who gives courses in constructing windmills from recycled parts, like brakedrums. I'd be interested in knowing how you make out. (I've been doing some casual research on old windmills myself.) I'm only about an hour and half from Goderich, in London. Contact me, if you like. tbpindustrial@on.aibn.com
 
Baker Manufacturing made windmills and pumps for several decades. They are still in business and still made the pumps for this if you want them. Call Dennis Atkinson at 608-882-5100.
