Sand point wells, hand dug wells and some other unusual wells may require some special attention when it comes to the overall length of the pump kit.  Specifically the standard 5ft increments (13ft, 18ft, 23ft, etc.) are not going to work, here is how to adjust the overall length of our kits in 1 ft increments using 3ft extensions.  Example

​

An AK18 can be extended 3 ft with one, 3ft extension making it an AK21

 

Start with an AK13 and add three, 3ft extensions and it becomes an AK22

​

An AK 23 is an AK23 (standard)

​

That same AK 18 can be extended 6 ft with two, 3ft extensions making it an AK24

​

​Add four, 3ft extensions to the AK13 and it becomes an AK25

​

So we can have a pump kit that is 21ft, 22ft, 23ft, 24ft or 25ft long depending on various combinations of 5ft and 3ft extensions.  

​

This strategy can be used at other legths also, the above is just one of many examples.  These 3ft extensions should be added just prior to the final Blue uppermost drop pipe.  The uppermost extension must be blue with a 5ft pump rod inside.
