        I am trying to find a manual pump/well setup. The soil is sand and water is hit at 17′. Supposedly 50′ is exceptional water (Perrier even tried to bottle it). Can someone help me find the equipment. I have only been able to find pumps that pull 25′. I live in WI. but will mail order.
        Thanks in advance.

          25 feet is the physical limit for any pump. To go deeper with a manual pump, you need a “lift rod” pump that has the mechanism in the well and the lift rod connected to the handle operates it.

              Contact Steven’s pumps and tell Jim Steven’s Sylvan says HEY.
