View source for Water well pump

A '''water well pump''' is a [[pump]] that is used in extracting [[water]] from a [[water well]].

Deep well pumps extract groundwater from subterranean aquifers, offering a reliable source of water independent of municipal networks. These pumps, often submersible and powered by electricity, can access water reserves located much deeper than shallow wells, ensuring a consistent supply even during periods of drought. 

They include different kinds of pumps, most of them [[submersible pump]]s:

*[[Hand pump]], manually operated
*[[Injector#Well pumps|Injector]], a jet-driven pump
*[[Mechanics|Mechanical]] or rotary [[lobe pump]] requiring mechanical parts to pump water
*[[Solar energy|Solar-powered]] water pump
*Pump driven by air as used by the [[Amish]]
*Pump driven by air as used in the Australian outback
*Manual pumpless or hand pump wells requiring a human operator

The pump replaces the use of a [[bucket]] and pulley system to extract water.
