From experience this thing works great. Hurricane micheal destroyed ours though.
How much did the pump cost?
Wranglerstar what is the approximate cost for a 150’ well? I will not do all the leg work gathering well info without a “ballpark” figure on cost to determine if it is even cost feasible! Even a price range will work. Thanks!
@@trailerparkcryptoking5213 Think he said about $100 a foot in one of the videos.
Every home well should have a hand pump like this. Seems kind of silly that they dont. But I am sure its all about cost. I can think of many times i wished i had one when the power went out.
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
well... lets hope he saw this in time.. lol..
Only a West coast Man 😎 would use petroleum jelly on a rubber gasket.....no normal Man would even think about it....😜 AIN'T IT JUST AIN'T IT 😎 lols
@@jeanlawson9133 this is the hardest part about dude ranching, you have to teach the dudes not to use paraffin for the gaskets.
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.
Thank you JTS, I am awarding you the comment of the week award, Congratulations, 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
P.S. Mechanical engineers are cool, no matter what everyone else says,
German engineering is fantastic
I tried to explain to my wife the beauty of stainless steel nipples and she just glared at me
Iron rings Gotta stick together. The anti seize compound or T tape is mandatory to prevent stainless parts from corroding or galling together over time. Looks great!
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 was waiting for the water to come out at the end , never been left hanging like this, hahaha
I needed closure, sadly no water....see you next video
Dang cliff hangers in UA-cam vlogs now :(
I know, right? A CLIFFHANGER! Argh! LOL
I had to go turn on the faucet just for a taste of some closure.
I feel your pain!
Cody,So simple a West Coast guy can install. God bless from the East Coast.
Nice,
@@wranglerstar hi, brian from Ireland do the company that supply the emergency food ship to the United kingdom???
hyundai 2200x Don’t get the emergency food it’s contaminated with STDs and 5g is connected with the coronavirus and most of the west coast men just got raped by the feds goodbye 👋
I don't know, have you asked them?
@@theirishworker4793 Probably, but the shipping on that would be really high, you'd most likely be better off to find a supplier in Europe.
"I'm a west coast man, we do the work of two men...Wah, Mrs Wranglerstar, HELP! Wah."
Lol who cares
I think he just wanted her to share in the project, West Coast men are also gentlemen
Knew that was coming
@@Mattscreative we in the land of the lost we do the work of 10 men for every one man
Here in Arkansas we do 1/2 work of 1 man
I love how you had your wife come out to help and be with you just in case. I do that with my wife just for safety sake when I’m worried something could go wrong. A good helpmate is a true blessing!
Some helpmates are one sided. One does the helping.
One of my favorite ways you edit is when you have long silent white noise of what’s going on then you cut in and start talking and it almost startles you because you were just focusing on what’s going on in the video and then seemingly out of nowhere he breaks in and tells you what’s going on now. Great videos as always man.🤙🏽
Thanks Tuck Tuck,
I watched a tree cutting video where you didnt speak almost the entire video. It reminded me of times when my dad was so aggravated with me that he didnt wanna talk but still made me help him. Lol
What an ingenious system. You’ll never forget the sound of the pipes going down the well if you ever drop it. I know I dropped my well one time. I’m going to look at this hand pump for my well. Thank you
Everyone with a drilled well should have one of those pumps on the top of it. A brilliant piece of kit. I definitely want one. That's the way to get water without electricity for sure.
@@brianmax8147 I definitely want it less now 🤮
I think... and I could be wrong, that the threads on the top are backwards because if you have to wrestle with the thing to get it off, you don't un-thread some other part of it and drop something down your well.
exactly what im thinking
Good thinking. Are y’all ex-drilling rig workers?
I installed a hand pump like yours in 2017 on my well. It has given me excellent service. No issues or problems. It great to know you can pump water from your well even if the power is off. 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 $650 and my diesel storage was free. It’s a fully plastic tank so no rust or leaks.
2500$ for a handpump?! How on earth?
That is definitely a nicely made pump. I can definitely appreciate great packaging and the way a kit is put together. It definitely says a lot about the company and the way they want to be seen by their customers.
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!
The number of wraps shall be three, five is right out!
Is it just me or did he leave the non-return valve sitting on the table instead of attached to the bottom pipe?
@@TheBelrick maybe
@islanti you can see it standing up close at 0:32 . Check out 3:12 . I dont see it on the pipe but i see it on the table! What this will mean of course is that he has to prime 150ft of water every use.
as per the counting of the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch???
Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three.
4:13. Ok, I'm not gonna lie, I was waiting for that to slip out of your hand and whack the other side of the ground. Not that I wanted it to, but it would have have been classic AFV type of thing.
5:47 This I'm sure took a lot of concentration. Don't forget to be sure the coupler is securely installed on the other end and remember to reinstall the coupler catch tool each time you lower more pipe! I was anxious just watching!
8:54 Good call. Better to have the Teflon than to assemble it all then discover a leak only to have to disassemble it to apply Teflon.
You're right. This pump is blowing my mind. Can't wait for part 2.
.
Simple Pump are the best of off grid pumping. They can pump from deeper depth and pump into a pressure tank. Others we looked at were not that capable.
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.
Thanks for sharing.
This is an amazing video! You didn’t cuss her out. You didn’t throw tools. And you didn’t jump up and down throwing a hissy fit! You know a man by his tools, cause you use the best, Knipex pliers!
"Portlandia" taught me everything I need to know about West Coast men.
James Hough - and Frasier haha (them doing this could be a whole ep!)
Portlanda deals with a very specific and hopefully rare subset of men that we now know to be "woke" and exceptionally well connected to their feminine side. They can be seen on the streets of downtown Portland. Often very hard to find in other geographic areas.
@@danmc7815 If you give up real Man Hood, are "Woke" and are completely in touch with your feminine side San Francisco may be an ideal place to be. Otherwise you may want to look somewhere else, and yes I am sure there are real men in San Francisco.
@@davej7458 SF is really not liked it used to be. Lived both there and NYC and it's just as manly or feminine as any metropolitan city!
that safety pin's importance cannot be overstated.
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
What s the difference?
@@redpilled4781 the ground water from the graveyard may have been contaminated by human remains, kinda filthy if you ask me.
Ew!
Us Florida guys would have done it one handed while drinking cheap beer.. But we are from the east cost, west coast, and a little "south" coast... Great video. I would love to have a simple pump on my well head. Oh and it probably would work but not be plumb.
190 ft installed three years ago. You got water, you got life. No more worrying about water collection or storage. Plus, I got arms like Popeye pumping that dang thing.
Vaseline is not good for O rings the petroleum base eventually breaks down the rubber. Use Crisco especially when working with potable water.
Glad you posted this. I’ve been looking at installing a hand pump next to my house in an old abandoned well as a back up source of drinking water. I might end up buying from Bison though but Simple is still a possibility. The only thing I’m waiting on is to have the well sounded and water tested. Once I know how deep it is I can get a quote and move forward from there
East Coat Guy here, strait out of northern Maine. 75lbs, that would be considered child's play round this neck'ah the woods.
I need one of these for my survival plans! I may touch on it in one of my survival Sunday videos
Torqued Up yes!! An excellent way to extract water without electricity! Loved the hatchet tests last Sunday
Torqued Up making the fire with a magnifying glass was a great survival strategy that’s simple and easy as long as you have some sun! I liked the Estwing machete in the video as well!
So does Cody get a kickback from your ultra-subtle product placement?
Tim Apple if he does and it’s a good product then we all benefited. I’ve ordered many products from his amazon link because I felt the products were something I needed and I wanted to see him benefit from introducing it to me
Another photo tip. When shooting in shade on a sunny day the light is bluish. Use a warming filter like 81B, or adjust the color in post production.
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.
There are few things as satisfying in life as the watery belch of a hand water pump starting to pull water. Some might say it can give you the fizz.
Please, please, please put anti seize on your stainless to stainless connections. You can very easily get galling if you don't.
Just want to say I appreciate the sonata so much when the music comes in. Loud head-jarring “music” gets shut down right away. Thank you and thank you for your informative vids.
The bolts on the collar that has the pinch screw make sure you put anti-seize on them the stainless and aluminum will well themselves in there.
There you go, showing off that big ole' LocTite again!
Was that food grade LocTite ?
@@54jake451 Everything is food grade at least once...
Nice, I have been wanting to install this type of pump on my well. What is the approximate cost in east coast dollars?
Impressive! I’m sure whoever installed the pump for Great grandmother’s kitchen sink would have been happy to have had this rather than the iron he had to work with.
Thank goodness! Someone who actually knows how to use teflon tape properly! "Make sure the final cut end will not be pointed in the direction the pipe will be threading into. Make it instead thread in the same direction as the tape end moves towards." It's a surprise how many people miss that obvious idea and have the tape pulling away and bunching up as a result (often stopping the pipe early in it's being threaded onto the next pipe, leaving a large gap for leaks to happen as a result). Happy to see that you missed nothing involving it!
@TravisD2011 Hence the same end as the tape moves towards clearly implying all surfaces the pipe will contact in the same direction the pipe will make contact. It was a bit too obvious, I agree.
Take a shot every time he says “beautifully machined”
At least he's not wrongly calling everything, "hand forged."
Wow Three shots!
Well it is.
Awesome video, Canadian Millwright here. Pumps are our friends!
Thank you for reading instructions and just show us how to do it 😀
These high quality hand pumps are over $1,000. I just need a backup to my Shurflo solar pump.
That's awesome I just got the stainless steel nipple upgrade for my wife as well before she only had cast-iron nipples let me know how it works out
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.
I was super worried about dropping that pipe down the hole. You had it under control and made it look easy, but for some reason, the thought of "wait, how would I get that back out if I dropped it?" was surprisingly nerve-wracking 😅. Cool video!
I was very much aware of the danger. You don't want to drop it,
@@wranglerstar you make it look doable, which is something I've always appreciated about your channel, going from idea and planning, through potential unknowns, to completed project, with character-building and learning along the way. Love it. 🙂
If you take your time, one guy can install this up to 150" if I went any deeper I'd have a helper,
"Being a west coast man..." Begging your pardon, But! I am an east coast man here in Florida. I and many of my colleges are born and raised here and we, each, have done the work of ten or more! Also! we done it all while in the EXTREEM! humid environment.
never thought at 16 i’d be so addicted to these videos
Better to watch these at 16 and know how to take care of yourself when you're grown and on your own, than to watch gamer channels and not know how to build or fix things. Keep learning because it all becomes useful
Me, not wearing a jacket in March cuz it's a beautiful day: 😊
Walking outside in the afternoon after the temp drops 10 degrees: 0:52
That was AWESOME !! And to end with Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata, made my day. thanks, Alan
That handle is probably made of delrin. Its a thermoplastic that acts similarly to wood when turned on a lathe.
Are you sure that's a water pump? Because it's giving me 15 Gal/Min of The Fizz!
Can't wait for part 2!
Man I hardly see anybody on job sites using knipex pliers, best purchase I've ever made! They make a crazy channel lock wrench design that gets crazy leverage. You can put a penny in the tip of the pliers and flatten a penny and fold a quarter in half.
8:59 “im gonna put it on the bottom, im feeling crazy today.”
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.
Me too. I like fabricating little things in my small shop and repairing my own junk.
Looks like a beautifully made product. And a great idea I wouldn't have thought of. Thanks for sharing!
What a beautifully engineered piece of equipment that is. Will last along time.
Why did you choose simple pump over bison pump? I'll bouncing between the two.
Ask that question in the search here, and in yahoo search. I had compared the two and there were several reasons the simple pump was superior. Can't remember exactly now, but look it up.
Very well made pump...I like the idea of having a hand pump and a electric pump I got only a small electric pump in my well....but I live in South-Africa will use solar if I need to pump water when the electricity is gone..that happens about everyday they call it load shedding...in other words don t have money to maintain power stations lol...Thanks for the Video Cody.
The east coast west coast jibes back and forth are quite humorous for us southerners.
Don't get me started on you Sweet Tea drinking Southern Men,
Absolutely love the ads every minute to minute and a half!!!
Man watching this got me really pumped up! Now I want one for my well! I was hoping it’d go long enough that we saw water. Reminds me of when I was a kid and a pond we would fish at out in the country had a hand pump well on it.
I've got one of these pumps still sitting in the box for SHTF. They've got great reviews and from what I can see so far they are built very well. They sell a motorized version as well I beleive.
Get on it.... Uh, we're too close to shtf for comfort!!!!
LA and San Fran and Seattle are on the west coast.. Man Love abounds,, nuff said.
Awesome. Really enjoy these and love your subtle jabs at certain people.
Maybe you'll catch this while the views are low - Unless I missed it, not how much did that setup run? Our well is about the same depth, and I don't want to bother the website guys with asking for a quote since we're not buying in the immediate future.
Cody, If you roll the teflon tape from the bottom of the roll on your middle finger you can maintain pressure on the roll and make wrapping much easier. I learned this from an electrician using black electrical tape.
2:36 noooo RIP LOCTITE
8:22
Thanks, Cody.
I am enjoying tracking this well installation.
That funny looking elboe type fitting is called a "Street L", which is always male on one side and female on the other. It omits using an extra "nipple" fitting.
Michael Dougfir,
Occasional helper to his father, the Angry Plumber.
I appreciate how thorough you put this video together. Nicely done.
Teflon on stainless can cause galling. There is a special teflon tape for stainless fittings.
So btw in Canada our east coast is more manly compared to the majority of the west coast because the most of the west coast is BC. (Population wise)
Good call adding Teflon at the bottom of the thread
This old man has learned so much watching your videos,Thanks.
Water at 300ft?! I'm impressed. Glad you hit it so shallow.
Water is at 75'
Does your well have baffles to center the primary well pump pipe in the bore of the well? If so the simple pump just slides down between? Looks like cool idea.
May I suggest if you would be so kind as to show everyone a drawing or some representation of the well pump and the well. It would be greatly appreciated I'm sure for some of your viewers to see what you see with your superhero x-ray vision that us mere mortals are unable to see what you can see.
I thought I'd finally found the perfect manual pump that I could use in case of emergency, alas I don't know that they make one for 450' wells
Another great video.Just a heads up though.They make food grade anti-seize.
What a beautiful piece of engineering. You are a man of my own heart using Vaseline and anti-seize grease. I will look forward to seeing the water run. I notice your Loctite is Blue and mine is Red, I wonder what the difference is, or is a new formula?
It is a warming feeling to work with some high quality products. I can sit and admire well machined parts for quite a while!
Your obsession with loctite and knipex pliers is making me loving your channel even more! Now i'm obsessed with them
Go back and watch the well drilling video and you can see the used the same setup with a collar and whatnot to prevent the drill from dropping into the hole.
that really is a fantastic kit. im really impressed with its quality.
If you use Teflon often, buy a roll of blue monster, it works way better than the cheap white stuff 👍🏻
I worked in the Underwater Boat maintenance business for 20+ years and whenever never-sieze was used it usually welded the pieces together almost perminantly. vicious stuff underwater.
That this is awesome! I can’t believe you can fit 2 pumps down there. 75 pounds is a hell of a lot of weight to be trying to lift by that little pipe without that tee.
Tough west coast guys vs guys from the East coast. Good laugh. Here in the Midwest we would do it with ONE hand.
07:49 **giggles**
Within the next two years, we will be retiring to a more rural home, more than likely it will have a well. I was thinking about a hand pump for emergencies, and you answered my question.
Ok. I think I need a calendar of Wranglerstar thumbnails. And this one should be the image for peak E.coli month, whenever that is. And there'll have to be a 'proper axe-sharpening' pic to correspond with my annual trip for sutures and intravenous antibiotics.
Cody m, have you ever considered having your new well water tested? As a water quality specialist for a state agency by trade, over here on the right coast, I deal with homeowners water wells on a daily basis. If for nothing else you can use the results as a baseline for on down the road if needed.
Two concerns...Vaseline (Petroleum product) on a rubber O ring??? and....No sanitizing before parts go into the well???
Hmmm, why was that a reverse thread on top? Think you'll remember that if you need to remove it in the future? I'd mark it some way.
I am guessing that if you need to remove it when it is much older and stuck you don't unwind fittings down in the ground.
@@harveysmith100 Sounds like a good reason.
Haha yeah, imagine 10 years down the road that reverse threading has gone out window
If that handle mechanism threads on to the sucker rod thing, thats why is would be backwards threaded right? so you did not loosen any of the joints deeper in the well while tightening?
Ok. So I think I am a little confused. This basically allows you to have both a manual hand pump AND an electric in well pump operated out of the same bore hole? If so I never knew this option existed. Down here in the south our biggest issue is digging a hole and NOT hitting water. As an example our casing is 80 ft, the entire well is only 142 ft and I think our static water level is only about 25 ft. Not sure what the depth of the pump is but it pulls 15GPM. A lot of people as a prepper method use a hand bored well with a a hand pump that only goes down to the sandy layer. Maybe about 30 feet deep. Not technically classified as potable water but good for an emergency.
That is absolutely wonderful!!!! Thank You for helping me jump start our well project.... You've provided a lot of good points and ideas!!!!
May God Continue to Bless you and your Family!!!!
I do not think this guy has a normal job like most do
you don't use the whole 150 ft unless you need it. Just put in enough pipe as you need, that will be a lot of pumping just to get the water to ground level. the less pipe you use = less pumping.
As the weight went up, the gloves came off to be sure the grip was good enough to keep from losing it down the shaft forever!
Maybe use silicone grease instead of petroleum jelly on the o-rings. Thank you for the video.
