Hello. Another project to work on. Tired of paying the RWD to water the garden. We have a 50 year old well that has never been used. They tested it and it was high in nitrates so it didn't get used. I need help on how to set it up, pump type and pipe.
Checked it today. It is 169 feet deep, only 18 feet to the water level, and has 8 inch ID steel casing that is cut flush with the ground and cemented in. I don't know what volume it will produce or what level it will pump down to.
Kinda figured it would need a 3/4 inch submersible run off of 220 volts. Will have to trench in water and conduit lines but first I just want to pump it for a while to see what volume and depth plus get a sample tested. Would like to winterize it but don't figure I will be cutting a hole in the casing 3 feet down. Thanks for any advice.
