Who maintains the pumps?
Water For All makes every effort to source pumps that are low maintenance. For example, solar pumps operate without human interaction, so they don’t have the same daily wear and tear as manual pumps. Because leaky taps and other minor issues do need attention from time to time, Water For All launched the “Pump Minders” programme. A community that receives a pump nominates two local residents, who help install the pump and are trained in basic repairs by Water For All’s installation team.
