EVERYONE ATTENTION : Giving this design open public, Reason, I did truly almost lose my life trying to get water right after getting out of surgery. By 6th month of dirty water after surgery, On Valentines Feb 14, 2019, During Freezing Rain and Snow at Sunset in Night Dark, my whole Water well assembly snapped and Fell! I was alone.......lucky still on my CHamp Forklift when Snap happen in Cold Blizzard Winds of Colorado. All my electric wire to my pump at 250+ feet removed, would have slammed into my back. I was desperately needing water and running water to get Custody of my SOns....I almost died Alone in Middle of Desert in Nowhere Ghost Town Mesita, Colorado....No one would have heard me or seen me, wolves are soooooooo bad around me, dare to walk the shadows of my Valley? Be safe and Work Safe!!! Do Warn for deep water well owners, Take safety to 1,000% and put all wire into a "No walk and working zone" only one worker guide all wires. All Advice I can gift and GIFT THE MOST BEAUTIFUL FINAL DESTINATION, PARADISE WATER!!! Enjoy! Good Luck! ^_^ DIY "At Your Own Risk"

Great job on your design of the airlift pump... was just wondering, what you think about using a air ring blower instead of air compressors. 300watt plus ring blower can deliver 90m3/h, 53 cfm, and 1500 Lpm of air.. so more air with less power....
Very interesting, have try it out! Less electricity and possibly only one device, instead of two compressors for deep water wells. Thanks for information!
I’m confused. I saw your video where you used this to remove sand from the well, but I don’t see how this pump would do that. I don’t see anything that would dislodge the sediment from the bottom. Was that pump modified? Thanks, and I’m glad you didn’t buy the farm out there in the desert, and I hope the custody thing went well. I have a buddy who’s going through that right now. It sucks.
Aye I know it seems strange way to remove heavy drilled crushed fine sediment out this way. As far trying pump out solid stones, metal rust, and anything else that big, No Go at very very Deep Wells. Have yet to design any attachments that could help break up anything at 400'feet Deep. Its really REALLY hard to clean any bottom of a well. What shot for here, is the Fine Drilling Tailings that settle and slowly pull back up into the submersible pump to clog it. DUE NOTE : Tiger Pump NOT a everyday Pump to Run for Residential or Commercial, its only to have a chance to clean bottom. Way works is bubbles and fine sediment stick together and uplift out. If your looking for Residential/commercial pump, Either Shallow Water Well Pump or Deep Submersible Pump. Used the Tiger Pump 4 times, 3 Deep 400'ft Wells and 1 shallow 85' feet well. Deeper the Well, More Challenging and Longer will take.
@@joeprimal2044 I’ve used a 3/4” pvc pipe inside a 2” pvc pipe with a threaded adaptor on the 2”. Threaded a steel 2” pipe nipple into the bottom and cut saw teeth into the bottom edge of the 2”. Bend out every other one of the teeth to flare out the “ bit “. Place a screw through the metal pipe nipple to keep it from unscrewing. Feed air down the 3/4” pipe, move them both up and down while twisting the 2” pipe to chew up the bottom and loosen the sand and gravel. I’ve blown out rocks 1/2” thick 1” diameter along with sand and clay.
@@akbychoice thanks, that sounds good but I don’t think it will work for my situation . I’m 300+ feet down with only 15 feet of standing water left. I have doubts air lifting will work, and I can’t imagine manhandling 300 feet of 2 inch. There aren’t any rocks I don’t think in mine. It’s just fine sand. I have a 12” diameter well, and I’ve got 85 feet of it sanded in, so that’s a hell of a lot of sand to remove. What I finally decided to try is I’m building a little dredge with a submersible pump and a bucket and I’m going to try to dredge the sand into the bucket, lift and dump, and repeat a few hundred times. Idk, it’s the best idea I’ve had so far.
@@joeprimal2044 I saw something similar to what you described. It was a 4” pvc with a cap on the end, a bolt through the walls on the top for the rope or cable. They had an air hose blasting alongside the 4” pvc at the bottom. It appeared to blast the sediment up along the sides and settle into the pvc. Then they would haul it up and dump it.
I'm looking to use an airlift pump on a wetlands filter which means I can't use copper since some aquatic animals are sensitive to it. Can I just replace it with pvc? I only need to lift it about 15 ft
@@moiraanderson6242 Thank you! For Bubble Wand Copper rod, use 1/8" drill bit for holes, space the holes Roughly 5/8"-3/4" spacings on Two Sides only. As far my bigger "X-Pump" was my first prototype attempt, At the depth of 375' feet, the X-Pump would be impossible to cleanse at up scale size. The X-Pump will be great for 6"+ diameter casings on Shallow Water wells up to 150' feet limit. This design be for stronger cleanse against bigger diameter drilled shallow water well walls. I believe it will work, but have not had chance or met someone got dimensions used for, confirm for sure go ahead. Tiger pump does work, very fast for shallow wells, and steady jet stream push for very deep wells.
@@moiraanderson6242 For air PSi flow, looking for strong enough compressor that can steady solid 45 - 55 PSi, single or dual compress hold that flow and should get a jet stream repeated push flows in waves, then should see sediment get caught in bubbles streams, bonds in waves as pushes out. 45-55 PSI range is what I noted down on 2 weeks took on mine with two weak compressors but ran long enough straight. I'm sure if find a "Spray Painting steady flow compressors" ones that usually say can run the 40-60 Psi range all times, should be strong enough as Single Compressor. Usually really big and can be rented. Get a strong flow and it fills more than 1gpm, on that one shallow water well, hit nearly 5gpm and cleanse of well went way faster. Recommend One good solid 24 hour pumping after water cleared and several bump up cleaning. Specially for 375' feet well, lot of work re-install. If missed any info could help, let me know, do my best get responses.

Hi Brandon, Ben from Qld Australia, hope I find you well. Pardon the pun. Seen you been through the wars. I am trying to use this concept to lift water from a creek to a tank about 20 m head. If you got any ideas, I would love to here from you . I will subscribe . Cheers mate
Hello Ben, when I used this design I made on 85' feet (25m+) Used a 5 gallon water bottle for that depth, was filling up decently fast with just ONE air compressor at steady 25 psi. Actually flows nice at Shallow Water well level. Also, Shallow Water Well Pump with Cistern help catch water up to height need from creek to land, could help save lots of pump power too. Spring Creek Water, nice!

Info is very helpful, A backup pump when the submersible quits or power outages you still got water, nice
Thank you very much
Thanks, Brandon! My wife and I will be building a unit for a well we have access to! Blessings to you and your family!!
Can you use irrigation pipes it would be alot cheaper and would it work, my well is 248'+4", I just want water

Will 1/2" irrigation pipe work for water line?
I would assume 1/2" work fine at 250' feet deep. Worked on a 400' feet Well I worked on
What size are the hole in bubble tube?
I'm looking to use an airlift pump on a wetlands filter which means I can't use copper since some aquatic animals are sensitive to it. Can I just replace it with pvc? I only need to lift it about 15 ft
Poly or PVC should be fine at 15feet, shouldn't take long to cleanse at that depth.
What is the drain in is that where the water comes out ,
Push air down into pump and pushes out exit point. Bubbles draw up heavy sediment
Are there printed plans I can purchase from you? Also, will you sell a pump to me?
Note * : Tri-angle Tiger Cuts on 2" Diameter pipe, Please Reduce to just 2 sides of Tiger Pump. Sorry, Tri-Angle Tiger Cuts for "X-Pump" design, larger design.
How many holes in the Copper Pipe, what spacing and what size please. This thing looks great
Will the X Pump work better for deeper wells like mine ? I can rent a 185 Air Compressor if Air is an Issue. Please advise Thank You
