Manual Well Pump

**Dlish** · August 17th, 2021, 02:15 PM

Anyone have a manual well pump? Top billing seems to be Bison, and cost a few thousand for a deep (200ft) well.

Just interested if anyone has rigged something up.

You have a manual pump that can pump 200 feet? I have to read more to see how that system works

Eight years ago we were quoted ~3K for one that pumps 180 ft from Ressler & Mateer here in Lanco. No brand specified.

You can buy one of these well pumps and install it yourself. I used to do environmental work with pumping out contaminants from wells and would buy a few of these, wire them up and install a pump line to tanks...I believe I paid 1k for a real nice top of the line SS well pump.

The pumps I had were rated for 200'+ of head pressure.
