Abstract
An odor venting water pump system uses an air pump to agitate well water within a well enclosure in order to separate unpleasant smelling gases from the well water. A water pump is positioned at the bottom of a well enclosure and surrounded by well water received into the well enclosure from the surrounding ground water supply. An air tube is connected to an air pump and a terminal end of the air tube is positioned at the lower end of a venting pipe which has an inlet to accept well water. The pumped air agitates the water within the venting pipe and pushes the air/water mixture upwards through the venting pipe to an outlet, where the water returns to the main water supply while the odious gases are free to exit the well enclosure through an air vent at the upper end of the well enclosure.
