Deep well, air operated water pump - Is the Feripump real Company ? Should I buy The Pump? ( Send the money)

Answer 1

http://www.ecosustainablevillage.com/air...   Don't know how much it costs but it is just a gas lift pump.(they have been used in oil fields since the '50's.Read the fine print it has to have 1/3 the lift distance water over it so it would take a pretty deep well( for a 100ft lift water top would have to stay at least 33 ft above the pump) .Do some research on gas lift pumps and you will see you can probably build something similar.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_lift
