Changes

Examples of PVC pumps are the [[EMAS pump]], the [[Canzee pump]] and the DTU pump. Some pumps are described in their own Akvopedia articles, reachable by clicking on the links above.

Because of their lightweight and low-cost design, PVC pumps are mainly suitable to be used by families or small groups of families. PVC pumps are not recommended for use by large groups of people, as this will lead to the need of frequent maintenance. An excellent overview of community hand pumps, which are suitable for larger groups, is available at the RWSN website<ref>[http://www.rural-water-supply.net/en/implementation/handpump-overview Overview of community handpumps at the RWSN website]</ref>.
