This 1 hour online course takes up where 'Water Supply' leaves off;  it takes you through sizing a pump, hydropneumatic tank and supply lines. This course gives the steps needed, along with examples, to move water from your source (well, lake, river or whatever) to the tap.

This course includes a multiple-choice quiz at the end.
