The Duplex 55 pump jack water pressure system on the Hanson Farm of Cushing, WI., is leaking pressure. This shows the well cap/head. The jack runs a sucker rod up and down pumping water 90 feet below in a well cylinder. Have to unbolt the head and see what kind of seals are in it. Leaked some, then froze at the top and now leaks too much!

commment: There are still folks in rural areas who use pumpjacks, and so local well drillers and repair folks often have extra ones on hand. I ended up replacing my well with a more modern pump and gave the old pumpjack to the well driller as he said he still fixed them and could use it for parts or replacement. So contact your local rural well repairman and he will likely know about them. - RiverRoadRambler - 2 months ago

About SCD Hub

  • SCD Hub’s mission is to serve as a hub for sustainable community development in order to provide trustworthy development & training tools to facilitate project planning, design & execution.

  • SCD Hub serves a curated collection information supporting best practices in sustainable community development, at this time we are working closely with the new UNM Peace Engineering program improve the quality of our database and improve how it serves the short, medium and long term planning goals of projects.

  • Our current work emphasizes the life cycle of water. The list of outcomes is fine for a start. Clearly defined project goals and objectives are a crucial element for planning the activities and inputs required to launch and sustain a project. -Bernard Amadei, Ph.D., NAE

Approach

SCD Hub’s pioneering work with UNM Peace Engineering program’s technical solutions library needs your support! We are working to document solutions for safe, affordable, accessible, and appropriate relationship with the lifecycle of water - from source to distribution, to disposal. Solid waste management lifecycle is also being researched in our library curation process.
