1- Make Your Own Hand Pump Water Well, Part 1 of 9

[intheflow]

This is a great tutorial video on how to make the well pump! My only question right now is how deep will the pump work ? I have a well that I need to pump water up at least 75 to 80 feet. Will one of these work for that?

Thanks so much for your videos!!!

I have the piston of my pump set at 90 feet deep. The water comes from the bottom of a well more than 200 feet deep. When I first measured the water depth it was only 12 feet below the ground. I think this was not normal and due to seepage over a long period of time. Ground is solid rock here. So I don't really know how deep my water is. I think the pump would work at 80 feet but I have no way of knowing for sure without testing. You would have to experiment on your own.
