Nothing negative to say—they are very efficient, always available to answer our questions, and send photos and videos of the construction as quickly as possible. I highly recommend them!

Features of the Seated Well💧

🪑 Collective seating: The well is designed with 12 to 16 seats, allowing beneficiaries to wait or use water comfortably.

🚰 Tap distribution: Five outlets are installed, enabling multiple families to access water simultaneously and reducing wait times.

⚡ Pumping system: Depending on the local setup, the well can be equipped with a robust manual pump or an electric pump powered by solar energy or the grid.

📏 Capacity and depth: Drilled to access local water tables, designed to provide consistent water to a large community of up to 700 people.

⏱️ Construction timeline: Complete installation – including drilling, pump setup, taps, and seating – is finished in under three months.

👥 Expanded collective use: This model is ideal for villages, schools, and mosques, where high and continuous usage occurs.

Our Protocol for Building a Seated Well💧

Site selection and preparation: The team begins by identifying a strategic location that is both accessible to the community and suitable for drilling. This step includes checking the groundwater table and soil conditions to ensure the project’s viability.

Installation of a solid concrete enclosure: A strong concrete structure is built to secure the well and form the base of the future water point. This element is essential to ensure the stability and durability of the well.

Excavation: Digging is carried out manually or mechanically until the required depth is reached. The goal is to access a reliable water table and provide sufficient flow for collective use.

Pump installation: A manual or electric pump is installed based on local resources (grid or solar energy). This system ensures a steady and practical water supply.

Connection of taps: Five taps are connected to the pump to allow multiple families to draw water simultaneously. This setup helps organize access and reduces waiting times.

Seating area construction: 12 to 16 seats are built around the well, creating a comfortable and social space suitable for gatherings and for the elderly.

Final checks and handover: Water quality is verified, finishing touches are secured, and the well is officially handed over to the beneficiaries, along with GPS coordinates and visual documentation.

Building a Well is One of the Best Forms of Sadaqa jariya

The Well: A Source of Continuous Charity

Providing access to water by building a well is considered one of the most valued charitable acts in Islam, as its benefits are long-lasting and touch an entire community.

According to a hadith reported by Muslim, the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said:

“When the son of Adam dies, his deeds come to an end except for three things: ongoing charity (sadaqa jariya), beneficial knowledge, or a righteous child who prays for him.”

A well perfectly embodies this concept of ongoing charity: as long as families continue to use this precious water, the donor continues to receive rewards, even after their passing.

💧 Accessible, reliable drinking water : around 3 months; the borehole is fitted with a hand or electric pump that guarantees clean water available for daily use.

👥 Up to 700 people served : designed to supply a large number of beneficiaries, this well meets the drinking-water needs of an entire community.

🛠️ Infrastructure designed for community use : with 5 taps and a sturdy pumping system, it can serve several families at the same time, reducing waiting.

🌱 A place to live and meet : the built-in seating adds comfort and conviviality and creates a gathering place around the water.

🚀 Quick, lasting construction : completed in under 3 months, this model provides a lasting service with easy upkeep for the local community.

✅ Advantages

Large capacity : this model can serve up to 700 people, making it a community solution suited to villages and public spaces.
Convenient distribution : fitted with 5 taps, it allows several users to collect water at the same time, reducing waiting times.

⚠️ Drawbacks

Maintenance required : the pump and taps need regular monitoring to keep working properly.
Energy dependence : if an electric pump is chosen, a stable energy source (solar or grid) is essential.
Higher cost : it costs more than simpler models, because of the extra equipment and built-in infrastructure.

📏 Depth and capacity : a suitable borehole that can serve up to 700 beneficiaries thanks to a community system designed for large gatherings.

🚰 Distribution through 5 taps : several water points work in parallel, easing access and reducing waiting for families.

⚡ Hand or electric pump : the choice of system depends on the resources available on site, guaranteeing flexible installation.

🪑 Built-in facilities : seating is built around the well, adding comfort and convenience, particularly for the elderly or for resting.

⏱️ Construction time : the whole project is completed in under 3 months, including drilling, tap installation and landscaping of the area.

Frequently Asked Questions

Open your heart

and help those in need

How long does it take to construct a seated well?

In general, the full project (drilling, tap installation/commissioning, and seating installation) is completed in under 3 months.

How many people can benefit from it?

This model is designed to meet the needs of around 700 beneficiaries, making it a suitable solution for large villages, mosques, or schools.

Why is it called a “seated well”?

It’s a layout/design around the water point that includes 12 to 16 seats, allowing users to wait or rest, while also making this place a friendly and practical space.

What is the difference between a seated well and a classic well?

A conventional well serves up to 500 people using a manual bucket, whereas the “well with seating” incorporates a pump (manual or electric), several taps, and a shared setup designed for larger gatherings.

Is the water potable?

Yes, the water is tested before commissioning to ensure it is clean and suitable for daily consumption.

Is a seated well considered Sadaqa Jariya?

Absolutely. In Islam, building a well falls under ongoing charity (ṣadaqa jāriya). The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said:

“When the son of Adam dies, his deeds come to an end except for three things: ongoing charity (ṣadaqa jāriya), beneficial knowledge, or a righteous child who prays for him.”

What type of pump is installed?

It depends on the local context: a sturdy manual pump may be preferred in areas without reliable power, while an electric pump (often solar-powered) is installed when possible.

What maintenance is required?

The taps and the pump require regular monitoring/maintenance to ensure they function properly. Local teams are made aware of these practices to extend the lifespan of the installation.
