6699 Hand Well Pumps

Cistern pump worked flawlessly. Once received I throughly inspected the pump for any loose bolts before installing the pump on the new well platform I had constructed. I have owned this farm for over thirty years and knew this well was on the property but had not put the effort into extracting water from this well. To my knowledge it has never been dry. After several weeks with no measurable rainfall I decided to revisit and inspect this well to verify it still held water and to build a new platform. After installation and priming the pump it worked better than my expectations. The well specs I will include below along with other items used during the installation process.Well specifics:Hand dug and stone wall lined.Approximate age 70+ years old?Approximate depth 33 feetWell width 3 feetWater depth 8-10 feet underground stream fed?Pipe used 32 feet one inch PVC with foot valve .I plan to utilize this water source for watering our garden/flowers and for emergency purposes.

This pump arrived quick, and it's everything I needed it to be. Quality seems to be great, and the leather is of good quality so it should last quite a while.The people saying it's junk obviously have no idea what they're doing. Just make sure all fittings are air tight, prime the pump with water by pouring in the top, and start pumping. It's really that simple.

Have not installed or used

So happy. Works better then I thought.

I bought the pump, barrel and diverter kit all on Amazon and I use it for watering my plants. All are 5 stars. It works great Only took 1 inch of rain to fill the barrel from empty!
