About the LAVA Manual Pump
LAVA Manual Pump
Vacuum by hand, no power needed
A hand vacuum pump for containers, lids, jars and bottle caps: place it over the valve, pull the handle a few times, and the air is out. No motor, no batteries, no mains power, which is exactly why it is useful where a machine isn't practical. A wall mount is included.
What it does
Containers, lids, jars, bottles
Pulls the air out through the valve of LAVA vacuum lids, containers and bottle caps.
Uses
Fridge, pantry and off the grid
Leftovers
An open container kept fresh in the fridge.
Dry goods in jars
With a universal vacuum lid.
Open wine
With the vacuum bottle top.
Off-grid
Caravans, boats, holiday houses and camping.
Looking after it
The pump never touches food: a wipe with a damp cloth is enough. Keep it out of the dishwasher, which can affect the sliding action. If the action stiffens over time, pull the pump out fully and put a little paraffin oil on the inner tube. Prefer a button to a handle? The rechargeable Easy Pump does the same job.
Specifications
A manual hand pump for drawing a vacuum on LAVA vacuum containers, lids, and bottle caps. No power, no batteries, just a few pulls to remove the air. It is compact, wall-mountable, and made to travel, so it works anywhere there is no electricity: caravans, boats, camping, or a second kitchen. To be clear up front: the LAVA Manual Pump is an accessory, not a bag-sealing machine. It does not seal vacuum bags or rolls. It draws air from compatible vacuum containers, lids, and bottle stoppers. If you need to seal bags, see the LAVA vacuum sealers.

Common questions
Does the Manual Pump seal vacuum bags?
No. It is a manual pump for vacuum containers, lids, and bottle caps only. It has no heat-sealing function and does not work with bags or rolls. To seal bags you need a vacuum sealing machine.
What can I use it with?
LAVA vacuum lids, vacuum containers, and bottle stoppers. You fit the pump over the valve on a compatible lid or container and pull by hand to draw out the air.
Does it need power or batteries?
No. It is fully manual, which is its main advantage. It works anywhere with no electricity, which is why it suits caravans, boats, camping, and travel.
How do I look after it?
The pump does not contact food, so cleaning is minimal. Wipe it with a damp cloth. Do not put it in the dishwasher, as this can affect the sliding action. If the action becomes less smooth over time, extend the pump fully and lubricate the inner tube with paraffin oil.
Do I need this if I already have a vacuum sealer?
They do different jobs. A sealer seals bags; the Easy-Pump handles containers, lids, and bottles by hand, with no power needed. Many people use both: the machine for freezer bags, the pump for fridge containers, jars, and travel.
