7 m of the surface.
===Construction, operations and maintenance===
The operation begins with priming the pump, by pouring clean water on the plunger through the top of the pump stand. Pumping is done by moving the handle up and down, usually while standing beside the pump (with a rower pump, the user sits). Most suction handpumps can be easily operated by men, women and children.
— most pumps are designed for family use and are not sturdy enough for communal use.<br>
===Costs===
From US$ 35 (Thailand, 1985), including 10 m galvanized iron drop pipe and a foot valve, to US$ 185 for a Wasp pump in India (1983 price without a suction pipe).
