==Suitable conditions==
The advantage of a counterpoise lift over handpumps is the replacement parts can be acquired locally. Sometimes mechanical handpump parts are more difficult to obtain. They also tend to need a certain amount of preventive maintenance if premature failure of components or impaired performance is to be avoided.<ref> [http://www.fao.org/docrep/010/ah810e/AH810E08.htm 4. POWER FOR PUMPING], FAO.<ref/>
 
The counterpoise lift is used extensively in Egypt. It is also common in Nigeria, Southern Niger, and Chad.
