Who It’s For

Applications
The decorative Abyssinian pump is designed to draw clean, untreated cold water from underground sources on allotments, in gardens, and anywhere without access to electricity. It works with Abyssinian wells and shallow water intakes, drawing untreated water for irrigation and household tasks before any potential treatment. The pump does not treat water. If water from a private source is to be used for drinking, it must be properly treated and its quality monitored.
Pumping is achieved by a piston fitted with a leather cup seal inside the body, operated by a steel rod and an external lever. The pump is installed vertically, and a suction strainer with a valve is used when the suction lift exceeds 2 m. With its ornate black casting, the decorative Abyssinian hand pump makes an attractive garden feature.
Features of the Decorative Abyssinian Pump
The decorative Abyssinian pump is a cast-iron piston pump with a vertically oriented body, finished in black with ornamental details. At its heart is a cast-iron piston with a leather cup seal, which, together with the check valve, ensures smooth water suction. The entire structure is cast iron, ensuring durability and wear resistance.
The pump draws water from depths of up to 7 m and requires neither a power supply nor consumables, making it free to operate. Its simple design makes installation and removal easy. Before first use and after a long period out of service, the pump must be primed with water. Before freezing weather, drain the water to prevent the pump from bursting.
