Ground water in the Norwalk, Suffield, and Glastonbury areas, Connecticut . Pitcher pumpin kitchen. ^^, Deep well pump withcylinder in cellar Figure -Diagram showina; two types of iiistallatiou of house pumps. the rising and the descending piston stroke instead of only on therising stroke. Deep-well pumps are superior to pitcher pumps inthat they are less liable to freezing, need little or no priming, andcan be used in deeper wells by lowering the working cylinder. A displacement pump may be installed in the house or barn atsome distance from the well, as shown in figure 7. The suction lift(vertical distance between cylinder and water level) should not bemore than 20 to 25 feet for moderate horizontal distances and stiUless if the pump is far from the well. In this report installations ofthis kind are called house pumps. Some have a pitcher pump onthe first floor and others have a deep-well pump with the workingcylinder in the cellar and the pump-handle standard on the firstor even the second floor. Chain pumps are used in many w^ells in Connecticut and are of twotypes—rubber-buck
