Sand Point And Pitcher Pump Kit

A pitcher pump used with a sand point (also known as drive well points) can provide water without electricity from a shallow well of 25’ or less with a yield up to 3 GPM.  It’s a good quality, yet inexpensive, alternative for getting water for the family during a short-term emergency. Installing a sand point well with a pitcher pump is easier than you might think. Please see Installation Instructions for Drive Well Points.  Also please see this informative document by Wisconsin Department Of Natural Resources to learn more about installing and using sand point wells.
