Using a Steel Pipe as a Dip Tube for Production Well

Published by in Academic

Hi Chris. I have used garden hose pipe with small lightweight pumps like the Grunfos pump or solar pumps. Very strong pipes are the Layflat hoses. They vary in sizes and can carry much more weight. Check the link. http://www.hosesandcouplings.co.za/  All the best.
