How Simple Pump™ Gives Rural Communities a Low-Cost, Self-Sustaining Water Supply

Many third world communities don't have access to clean drinking water. In many cases, women and children must walk over a mile every day just to haul back contaminated water. Sadly, people forced to drink this contaminated water end up suffering high rates of deadly diseases.

And without a convenient water supply, these rural communities can't irrigate crops. That's a critical problem because crops are usually their main source of income. So without water for irrigation, these communities remain trapped in a desperate state of poverty.

The good news is Simple Pump™ can improve the health and economy of these rural areas. Simple Pump™ is a lever arm water pump that makes clean water easily available.

The best part is, Simple Pump™ is affordable - it only costs a fraction of other comparable manual water pumps. And thanks to its extremely durable design, Simple Pump™ works reliably in any climate... for generations.

A manual water pump made... Simple

• Easy to use - when pumping manually, the unique lever arm pump only takes 10 lbs. of force to pump 3 gallons per minute from 100' - even uphill. It's so effortless, even a child can do it!
• Easy to install - installs in less than 2 hours using common tools.
• Convenient - designed for kids and adults to safely grip the smooth lever arm handle.
• Safe - lever arm removes from the pump when not in use. So children aren't tempted to play with it.
• Tamper-resistant - in just 5 minutes, you can remove the lever arm and related linkage so the pump stands only 5" above the ground. In this "low-mode," your manual water pump won't stand out from your landscaping or attract vandals.

A hand water pump made... Durable

• Quality materials - Simple Pump™ is made completely from lead-free, CNC-machined stainless steel and aluminum components. All components are Safe Drinking Water Act compliant. The pump rods are high tensile fiberglass and the drop pipe is Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) schedule 80.
• Precision-machining - all components are machined in aerospace-class manufacturing plants. This assures your hand pump will work when you need it.
• Unmatched durability - designed to last at least 50 years with nominal maintenance costs.
• Frost proof - the self-priming pump keeps your water flowing even when the ground is frozen.
• Adapts to your environment - pump functions smoothly in extreme wind, hot or cold weather.
• 5-year warranty - in case of a defective component, just send us the part and we'll replace and ship it to you for free anywhere in the continental USA. *(please see FAQs for more details)

A lever water pump made... Affordable

• Simple Pump™ only costs a fraction of comparable manual water pumps.
• You can reduce shipping costs by obtaining the required PVC drop pipe locally. Also, the complete Simple Pump™ kit comes with 108" sucker rods. Optional 54" sucker rods are available and can be shipped via Parcel Post.
• The cost-savings goes beyond the initial set up. Simple Pump™ has an exceptionally long use-life because it is constructed with durable materials that resist wear and tear from daily use. In fact, only 3 parts ever need replacing (just once every 5 years) for the life of the pump. And each part averages only $5.00. That's only $1 a year - less than the cost of a cup of coffee!

So for only $1 a year, a rural community can get a boost in health conditions and an economic lift. This makes Simple Pump™ an ideal solution for third world communities.
