Water well pump
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A water well pump is a pump that is used in extracting water from a water well. There are many makes of pumps, the foremost being Franklin Electric (American), and Pedrollo (Italian).
They include different kinds of pumps, yet most of them are submersible pumps:
- manual pumpless/hand pump wells requiring a human operator
- mechanical or rotary pump requiring mechanical parts to pump water
- solar water pumps
- DC Submersible Well Pump
- Pumps driven by air as used by the Amish
The pump replaces the use of a bucket and pulley system to extract water.
