    Well, Cody, you do not want to use Vaseline on your rubber gaskets for water equipment. The petroleum-based jelly eats away the rubber, causing the rubber to stretch, or tear sooner than normal. The preferred o-ring lube is a Teflon or Silicone base to keep the rubber soft and supple. Nice pump though

    Cody,
    As a retired mechanical engineer who supported him self through college for 13 years as a machinist, I was struck with pride at the design and precision-machining, bronze bushings, fit, finish, and clear instructions. USA (and Canadian) Engineering and machining is still the greatest in the world. I was relieved to see you go back and put Teflon tape on both sides of the nipple, and I watched with respect as your sweet wife patiently listened, understood, and did exactly what you needed her to. You did a good job installing a great piece of equipment with the help of your wife, who is a true partner. You are a lucky man.

    We had a simple pump when we lived there in Woodland. Loved it! Company was real easy to work with. Craftsmanship was outstanding. And of course as a West coast man, easy to install your self. Best part and I would highly recommend doing, is putting the check valve and pressure gauge on it. I put a T on the output and plumbed it into the main line to the pressure tank in, with a ball valve to close it off when not in use. That way when power went out, i could feed and pressurize the system and have fresh water in the home.

I also have a 5 kw diesel generator with 280 gallon storage tank with a manual electrical switchover but if my generator dies or my fuel runs out I still can hand pump my water. My hand pump costs about $2500, my diesel generator about $650 and my diesel storage was free. It’s a fully plastic tank so no rust or leaks.

    Little story about those hand pumps from when I was a kid.
    I grew up living right beside a graveyard, and in that grave yard, there were maybe 4 or 5 of those hand pumps scattered around for people to water flowers and stuff.
    But to 8 year old me they were the coolest thing ever, so of course every single day walking home from school I would walk through the graveyard to drink from those pumps.
    Only now watching this video I got reminded of it and im starting to wonder if that counts as second degree cannibalism or something. Oh well, I've done dumber things

    Wow what a awesome improvement to the timely hand operated pump.
    Before I give my feelings and opinion on it let me as an East coast old hand address the statement Westcoasters do twice the work of us East coast guys.
    That statement could be true. It is possible for our output to be doubled.
    I would however advise anyone attempting such a feat to arise very early, eat a bathtub full of Wheaties and plan on a late night dinner if you make it that long. Good luck Ole boys.
    I just watched a video on hand pumps. It showed the parts, where each fit and purpose , then how they all as a whole operated to get water without more than hand power. When I was younger and learning how to accomplish twice the work in half the time as late sleeping western guys we often had access to a hand pump and they always seemed to have the coldest, best tasting water. I feel for anyone that's never quenched your thirst at the end of a row of a tobacco field. I also feel for anyone having to do so while I lay up under an air conditioner nice and cool.
    The old style pump would only lift water 25 feet and knowing that proves I did just watch old style pump video.
    Clearly this is a much better design and as clean potable water becomes scarcer this is a great improvement and I m sure it will appreciated out West as much as it here where designed. LOL.

    I installed our Simple Pump today.
    Had a little trouble with the new well cap fitting and sitting level (so the pump stands straight), but after that the pump installation was no problem. One piece at a time and pretty soon you're done.
    Now we have a water supply independent of electricity or whatever this crazy world may throw at us. Is it as convenient as turning on a faucet? Of course it isn't. But when you need water it will always be there, and that means a lot. And we can pump into our house pressure tank and use our faucets, including hot water, while having to go outside to pump the handle and repressurize the tank every so often. It's more work than having the water pump working, but when the power is out you have both hot and cold WATER (provided you have a gas water heater). That's the main thing.
    It's very well-made, heavy-gauge, built to do its job, and last a long time. Our well is 33 feet to static water level and about 90 feet deep. The simple pump sits at about 67 feet below ground. Given our well recharge rate of about 10 gallons per minute, we could pump the Simple Pump non-stop and never run out of water. That is a huge comfort and reassurance, knowing it is always there and ready.
    This video, together with information from the company's website and other internet reviews, was the reason we bought it.
    Water is the staff of life. Simple Pump FTW!

    Vaseline is not good for O rings the petroleum base eventually breaks down the rubber. Use Crisco especially when working with potable water.

    One of my favorite things to do. I love to work on things where it requires methodical thinking and movements. Sometimes I feel like we are all in a rush and that is where we get into trouble. I would love to spend an afternoon to be able to install a well pump because I find it relaxing.

    Have you thought about taking a well water sample and sending it off to a lab somewhere to find out it's mineral content or if there are any contaminants? My thought is that it's probably fine just the way it is. I'm just curious. Awesome video; I look forward to the next one!

    Left hand threads - so that if something binds down-hole; when you disassemble the top you tighten the sucker-rods. You definitely don’t want to unthread one of those somewhere down the hole.

  • @charlesb4267
    @charlesb4267 Před 4 lety +1

    A hint about easily determining if a male thread is right or left hand thread ( female thread is harder to tell simply because its internal but certainly sorted out with other visual methods etc ). Picture holding a bolt in front of you horizontally looking at the side profile of the bolt threads. If the bolt threads angle to the "right" from a top to bottom visual, those are right hand threads. However if holding a bolt that you are unsure of in that same orientation and you note that the threads angle to the "left" as you look from the top to the bottom, that is indeed left hand thread. So for example that male threaded rod the pump screwed onto, you would have tilted your head to the side to be looking horizontally at those threads and you would see they indeed would have angled to the left as you drew the line so to speak from top to bottom. And if anyone is still confused, when I say top to bottom your actually looking from one side of the bolt threads to the other side but being the bolt is horizontal to your eyes I used the terms top and bottom. Cody, give that a try with a fair sized course thread bolt as that angle shows up so easy, and doesn't matter if the the threaded end is to your right or left, it doesn't change that thread orientation. Just a little handy man/woman hint for anyone who happens to read this.

    That's one of the most interesting videos you have done. If you had to use that hand pump to pump water for garden and animals how much water could you realistically pump? Or another way how many animals could you support? Also how did you choose this particular pump? I am realy looking forward to the next installment. We have a well and are very interested in a backup pump.

If for nothing else you can use the results as a baseline for on down the road if needed.

    Old technology made new. I had a similar water well pump that was installed just after World War II and electrically operated like an oil well pump with the rocker arm going up and down. We had to pull the rods and change the leathers on the bottom every few years which was a bit of a job since the well was 350 feet deep. Jess
