Locci Manual Well Pump,Stainless Steel deep well hand pump water suction,pitcher pump for well water suction Groundwater for Home Garden Yard (thickening)

Simply put it just works. Excellent hand pump and easy to assemble.\Great spare parts kit as well should you ever need them.

Fyi.. check ur size and bring the adapter to your local hardware store..not all PVC will fit.. it's a metric type..ur better off just purchasing an US standard measure screw 1in adapter at ur local store, like i did. But this pump works! Let me tell you!! ! I was not expecting it. It been in the elements alone for a while now..and it holds ! U can attach a hose clamp or a PVC clamp to the pump nozzle if u need to extend the spout.. I did.. I can now give my pets water at ground level. U won't be upset. Just remember..ur gonna need to buy the 1 inch pvc screw adapter if ur in the USA. The one it comes with..did not fit any known USA PVC diameter. But I like it. Compared to the ones on the market . No rust. No issues..strong..and HAS EXTRA seals..!! U won't be upset. Even the base mounting is solid with no breaks.

I bought this to be able to get water from my well in the event of a power down emergency. With a 25' suction hose with foot valve, it easily lifts water about 14' with little effort after priming . Lightweight build, but stainless with rubber seals, so better than a cast pump to sit idle for long times. If I expected an emergency, I would quickly order another to be safe, but I would order the same thing.

works awesome and easy to mount and pump

The inner portion where the suction is happening has weld sticking out causing the rubber to get damaged with every pass. It would give this thing a month use before the rubber seal tares more resulting loss of suction. I’ll be returning it

The media could not be loaded. We had gone through a number of iron pumps and the leather seals. Neither last long in the subtropical Florida climate. About the time you need it, an iron pump needs torn apart and fixed.Looked around and found this gem. Stainless steel with rubber seals. It also costs less than a cast iron boat anchor pump. Rolled the dice to see if it was good.We added washers to the handle as other reviews recommend. Also took the time to degrease and deburr all the parts. This came right of an assembly line at a factory, so there were a lot of sharp edges that needed removed. For this price it was not a concern.Our pump came with a U.S. adapter (304 SS) that screwed into the bottom of the pump and adapts to 1 1/4 NPT pipe. The same as our check valve. We just used a 2' long pipe that was threaded on both ends.Overall we are very happy with this pump so far, and will be buying again.

Using this pump to get water up a slope from a pond. Connected to 3/4 inch PVC, a length of 29 feet up an incline. The elevation gain is 18 feet. Had to buy a PVC connector, the one supplied is an odd size and does not fit any U.S. PVC pipe. Must prime with a pint of water to wet the seals, then about 15 strokes to get it flowing. Output is about 8 to 10 strokes per gallon. Added washers to the handle bolts. Surprised it works so well, happy with the purchase. Note: it's a suction pump only, gravity outflow will not push water any higher than the pump.

Okay , stainless steel is great. Before you install this pump you need to use a really good deegreaser because it still will have oils on it from the manufacturing process so take it completely apart and wash it thoroughly inside and out ! Next, you'll want to buy some 5/16" x 1" stainless steel washers to take up all the space on the pumping arm where it mounts to the pump itself and to the pump suction cup arm. There's way to much play in everything and you'll want to buy about thirty washers depending on the thickness. Next , every bolting point inside and outside of the pump itself that uses a nut you'll want to buy new bolts that are about a 1/4" - 3/8" longer even the two really small ones that help hold the water suction cup on. And buy stainless neoprene locking hex nuts to match your bolts and buy four stainless neoprene lock nuts to go on both the top and bottom of the water cup Forked cup holder pumping arm that the cups mount directly too. Especially, you'll need to rap some Teflon tap on that screw that holds that weighted flat at the bottom of the pump. Don't forget to get a longer screw and neoprene lock nut that holds the weight to the flap at the bottom too ! You don't want anything falling off and going back down the water pipe !You will need to do all this before installing this pump so it'll take out all the loose wobbling and so your nuts and screws don't fall off and you have to take the pump off to fix everything right to hold up under all that pumping and suction motion. I know it's a pain but if you like the pump make it hold up. And don't forget to look at all the welds inside and out to make sure everything is melted and welded together with no holes or cracks for water to leak! I hope this helps .
