Hand Water Pump Installation in Tenstrike, MN

At American Water Well, we don’t just work on modern well systems — we also appreciate the value of traditional, reliable solutions. Recently, we completed a personal project in Tenstrike, MN, installing a hand water pump alongside the property’s well.

Hand pumps are a tried-and-true way to access fresh water without electricity. For many in Northern Minnesota, they serve as a backup water source in case of power outages, or as a primary system for off-the-grid living.

To make this project even more functional, we also installed a drinking fountain after completing the pump. Now, the property has both modern convenience and a legacy system that provides peace of mind.

Why Install a Hand Water Pump?

• Perfect for cabins, homesteads, and off-grid living

• Provides redundant backup water access in case of emergencies

• Durable, long-lasting, and low-maintenance

• A nod to heritage water systems while still being practical today
