ABSTRACT:
A pump assembly for the accurate transfer of water to an above ground elevation includes a tubular housing having an upper extremity equipped with a gas inlet port, and a lower extremity equipped with a water inlet port having a first check valve. A second check valve divides the housing into upper and lower chambers. A sampling port located within the lower chamber communicates with a conduit that extends to an above-ground elevation. A third check valve, disposed within the conduit, permits upward flow but not downward flow of water in the conduit. A pumping apparatus is provided by combining the pump assembly with a gas controller located above ground level and which supplies gas at controlled pressure, volume and timed intervals to the gas inlet port.
