Deep Handpump

Deep Water Well

A Deep Water Well is a durable and sustainable water source designed to serve approximately 7–9 households. With proper maintenance, its lifespan extends up to four years or more. The well includes a 5-foot apron for hygiene and protection, along with a 2-foot space and a 3–4-foot animal watering point, ensuring both people and livestock have easy access to clean water. This design provides a reliable and long-term solution for communities facing chronic water shortages.
