I installed a simplepump hand pump version in 2022. Water level @ 170. Simple pump down to 240' It does not hold a prime. After a wk. it takes 70 pumps to reprime. I'm only getting 2 oz flow per pump, where it was advertised at 4.5 oz. I'm convienced that the pump is defective and asked for them to send me a new one that I can replace when pulling the original. However when talking to the distributor, they indicated i would need to pull the pump and return for testing before receiving a replacement. It might be simple, but it's not very easy to get water to the surface on a 200' well. I would not recommend. read more

We bought the Simple Pump Deep Well Hand Pump for our 240ft deep well. Hand pump was located approx. 110 feet just above our electric pump. -Fully detailed instructions with each component pictured & explained. -Excellent packaging. -Excellent quality and solid design was highly recommended by our well drilling company / installation specialists. -Installation by a professional was straight forward, installation was about 1.5hr but they had tools and devices that the average person will not have. -Pump is working as expected. Thank you Simple Pump. read more

After a lot of research I chose the simple pump because of ease of installation and they are easier to pump. Installing the pump was super easy! Instructions were great! Took me from start to finish about 2 hrs by myself. Had water pumping the first time after about 10 pumps. Since I live in a cold climate, mine has the weep hole.drilled in it, so takes about 4 pumps and water is coming out fast. My simple pump is set at 95ft. Extremely happy with it , and feel much better knowing I have access to fresh water when the power is out. read more

I bought the Simple Pump last spring and I want to tell you it is everything the company advertises it to be. The staff (all of them) were amazingly patient with me to answer ALL my many questions. If they did not know the answer to a question they promptly found the answer. The instructions for installing the pump were crystal clear, and the installation videos are excellent. I installed my simple pump by myself and I am 82 years old. However, I don't recommend doing this. It is far safer to have a helper. I did mine alone because, at the time, I couldn't get any help. My Simple Pump works exactly a they said it would. I very highly recommend the Simple Pump to anyone who needs a reliable hand water pump. read more

This is the first time I've ever had to order a manual well pump. After considerable on-line research I narrowed it down to two companies. Simple Pump gave the best price - was more responsive and had a very friendly and professional staff. The well pump was delivered exactly as promised and in great condition. Haven't had the well company install it yet but I forsee no difficulties. read more

New to the Gardnerville area, I was interested in installing a quality manual water well hand-pump as a contingency plan. To my surprise and delight, I discovered that the Simple Pump Company was founded and is operated locally in Gardnerville! I did research, discovered that the Simple Pump product would be ideal for my purposes and exceeded the features and quality of it's nearest competitor. The fact that it was a local company made things even better. I went to the company website and filled out the "Get a No Obligation Quote." I was able to come up with virtually all the information asked for, but did have a question in one category. I submitted question and was soon contacted Tom Christensen, of Tom Christensen Design, the Gardnerville area Simple Pump dealer. We discussed my question and he thoroughly explained the answer. From here, we discussed my water pump interests, future plans and related subjects. I was impressed with Tom's thoroughness in discerning my needs. The system was quite literally custom tailored to my application needs. I was also impressed with the potential options available to those who could use them, such as strong motor/solar powered options that are popular with off-grid and international customers. My custom designed system soon arrived and was expertly installed by Tom Christensen, although in truth, installation can actually be performed by any end-user as the instructions are extensive and through. I just so impressed by Tom, I wanted someone who had done this for years do the install so I would watch, learn, and ask questions. I wasn't disappointed and learned a lot. I was also pleased to learn that the Simple Pump Company has revised their product to address past concerns that, while numerically rare, were still issues to be resolved. My system reflects all the factory upgrades, is simple, strong, and amazingly durable. I can fully recommend the Simple Pump Company for those people who desire a quality manual well pump for auxiliary, primary, or range-land purposes. Reasonably priced and it's just plain nifty! read more
