Stainless Steel Shallow Well Pump

• This system will not freeze, and is completely lead free
• Pump head is made of rust-proof 304 stainless steel pipe and 304 stainless steel fittings, with associated PVC and brass fittings
• Air- and water-tight design. Keeps contaminants out of your well. Unlike cheaper pumps, it can pump into a hose or pipe.
• Safe for indoors or outdoors
• Polished 304 stainless and brass, 100% food grade finish
• To install, you will need to add a PVC "drop pipe" (available locally).
• USA handcrafted by the Bison Pump Company, an industry leader

You can obtain low-cost PVC pipe (readily available at any hardware, plumbing or home improvement store). Drop pipe must terminate below water and far enough off the bottom of the well or cistern to prevent it from sucking up dirt when you pump. If the pump is installed in a location that may freeze, note that using a foot valve or check valve will defeat the frost-free drain function. If the pump freezes, the pump or the drop pipe could crack.

If the pump is installed indoors and protected from freezing, installing a foot valve or check valve at the bottom of the drop pipe will keep the pump primed and may improve performance.

Water's surface must be less than 20' to 25' from pump for this pump to work. If water level is deeper, you need a deep well pump (also available from Lehman's).

Produces about 19 oz per stroke. It takes seven strokes to produce a gallon of water.
