The majority of people in the developing world gain access to groundwater either by means of a bucket and rope, or by using a hand pump. Using a bucket and rope can be made easier if the well is provided with a windless to help lift the bucket.

However, although easy to operate and repair, the bucket and windless arrangement has serious disadvantages: it does not allow the well to have a salable cover slab to prevent ingress of polluted water or other contaminants, and the bucket and rope themselves are continually polluted by mud and dirty hands. Therefore, if the water to be raised from a well or borehole is for people to drink, it is preferable to install a hand pump.
