    the sprinkler system in the new dwelling runs off well water with a small electric pump - wonder how i could tap that well if needed if the electricity is out?

    let me clarify my question: what could i use to manually extract water if the power goes out and i do not use a generator?

    how deep is the well and what size is the drop pipe also important is how far down the standing water is
