When purchasing a Simple Pump Deep Well hand pump or Motorized Well Pump Kit, we provide custom-cut drop pipe kits sized precisely for your well specifications. Cutting your own PVC is not recommended.
Why Factory-Cut Drop Pipes?
Precision Matters
Our drop pipe kits are manufactured with:
- Schedule 80 PVC - Heavy-duty construction
- Precision threading - 1" NPT male threads on each end
- Exact lengths - 27", 54", and 105" standard lengths
- Quality control - Every pipe inspected before shipping
Warranty Implications
Important: Cutting your own PVC or modifying factory-supplied components may void your warranty. Simple Pump's lifetime parts warranty applies to components installed according to our specifications.
Available Drop Pipe Lengths
| Length | Use Case |
|---|---|
| 27" Drop Pipe Kit | Fine-tuning depth, shallow adjustments |
| 54" Drop Pipe Kit | Standard installations |
| 105" Drop Pipe Kit | Deeper installations, fewer connections |
Top Drop Pipe Kit Options
For the uppermost drop pipe (attaches to pump head):
- Standard Weep Hole - Pre-drilled freeze protection for most installations

The weep hole provides automatic drain-back for freeze protection in cold climates.
