A device originally created by H. A. Wirtz in 1746, is today being used for irrigation purposes and for drainage of lands. It can deliver water to a greater height, can be built and repaired easily at a very low cost, and runs without electricity.
Wirtz water wheel, as it is called, uses the energy of flowing water to move water through a coiled pipe as it spins, thus continuously moving water through the coils. As water moves through the coil, each column of water moves under pressure to the next column of water. That keeps it moving without any kind of electricity to power it. Depending upon where you set the output pipes, you can move water from a creek to your field without electricity.

The drawback is that it only works where there is a steady source of running water.
The majority of human water consumption is in arid to semi-arid regions and is pumped up from deep undergound using a lot of power to overcome the forces of gravity and vuscous drag [yes even water has viscosity] along the many miles of pipes.
The only way this would work is to use it in places where water is steadilyt running at an adequate volume, depth and velocity to achieve the levels of output the user needed.
Also the pressure would be virtually nil as this machine can not pump higher than the lowest outer point in the coil due to hydrostatic pressue.
This means that to use the water [which in this image is clearly NOT filtered or purified in any way for pesticides, radioactive waste or upstream effluent] you would have to handle it from there in a pool, cistern or by bucket as you could not fill a pressurized tank or tube with it.
