Bison pump has answers during crisis

    For residents left without power, one Maine-based company has a solution for access to well water. The Bison Pump can be easily installed in existing wells alongside most electric water pumps. Constructed of high quality 304 stainless steel, Bison Pumps have a threaded faucet to accommodate a garden hose, which can then supply water back into the home plumbing system —sinks, showers and toilets —through the outdoor faucet.
    "For residents in rural areas, where the power is often the last in line during an outage, a hand pump can be a lifesaver,”  said David Harbison, founder of Bison Pumps. “Many of our customers have installed them in areas where the power outages are frequent."
    Bison Pumps are engineered in Houlton and shipped anywhere in the United States and overseas.  Interested parties can speak with a customer service representative to determine the pump size and materials requirements for their particular well diameter and location.
    "We have most sizes in stock and ready to ship right now," Harbison said. "If your well pump is electric, now is the time to consider adding some old fashioned Yankee common sense—a Bison Pump."
