We installed a cheap well hand pump at our off-grid property…will it work?
We have been extremely blessed this month to collect almost 30 barrels for our #bluebarrelproject ! Since our driveway was filling up with barrels, we made an impromptu trip up to our property to drop them off and install a well pump for our campers. Below is a listing of all of the items we used for the project, we are thrilled that the pump is working and that our campers now have a way to rinse off after a fun day of riding the trails!
Well Hand Pump Items:
Stainless Steel Handpump
Locci Manual Well Pump, Stainless Steel hand well pump, pitcher pump for well water suction pump Groundwater for Home Garden Yard (Tapered style) https://a.co/d/bUGfkx4
Stainless Mounting Bracket
osea Stainless Steel Well Pump Stand 42cm Manual Deep Well Water Pump Bracket for Garden Yard Farm Home https://a.co/d/aW7fMiJ
3/4” Threaded x 1” Slip Adaptor
(It comes with an adaptor but as we found out, it does not fit😠)
1” PVC Pipe
1-1/4” x 1” Bushing
(This was to fit the 1” pipe into the existing 1-1/4” union that was on the well)
Rain or Shine PVC Cement
Pipe Cutter
Post or conrete base to mount the stand on, we used an old garbage can shroud that we found in the scrapyard.
Water to prime the pump, our pump took (2) 16oz bottles
It did loose prime after an hour so we left a gallon jug of water beside it in case it happens again, anyone can prime it. We were able to re-prime the pump and when we check it the next day, it held, so hopefully there are no issues with it but if there are we will be sure to post an updated video 😊
