Reasons to Use a Hand Water Pump

Rather than water your plants, these hand pumps are primarily designed to remove water from irrigation components like valve boxes and pipe trenches. With one of these portable water pumps, you can quickly and manually drain excess water to prevent damage or freezing in colder weather. While they can move small amounts of water with each stroke, they are not intended for continuous water delivery. Instead, use these pumps for occasional water removal and troubleshooting tasks around your garden or irrigation setup.

Hand Water Pump FAQs

How much water can a hand pump deliver?

Manual water pumps come in several different sizes, so the amount of water will vary from pump to pump. Flow rates can range anywhere from 8 to 24 oz. per stroke or more, depending on the model. This can add up to around 13 GPM with manual pumping.

Can a hand pump be connected to a hose or drip irrigation system?

These hand water pumps are generally not designed for continuous irrigation use. While it might be possible to rig a connection with adapters, these pumps aren’t suitable for the consistent flow or pressure required for hoses or drip irrigation.

Do these pumps require electricity or batteries?

No, they are manually operated and typically just require a pumping action without any special tools. Since our irrigation hand pumps operate through manual pumping, they’re ideal for maintenance tasks in areas without access to power sources.
