    Converting to solar power?

    I have a well that is 600' deep. The cistern it fills is another 70' up on top of a hill. I'd like to convert from grid power to solar power. Looking at the bill I got when they installed the well, it uses a Webtrol model "L" 3hp 4" pump. I tried calling Webtrol but they need to know the model...

    Chlorine injection or drip system?

    First let me describe my system...... I have a 600' well. When the float in my 1100 gallon cistern closes the well pump fills the cistern through the upper inlet. Out of the cistern's bottom (outlet) I ran a poly line about 250' to a smaller (300 gallon) holding tank in the basement. The 300...

    Explanation of CVG?

    Sediment particulate size test?

    My mom lives on a well and soon we will too. Her well water has extremely fine sediment that smells like chalk (in the hot water) We have the same problem 20 miles away. I was trying to figure out how to tell the particulate size of the sediment, so I can get a pleated filter just smaller that...

    Technique for setting bladder pressure?

    How do you set the pressure in the bladder in your bladder tank. My pump shuts off at 55 lbs. I recently upped the output pressure of the pump but don't know how to set the bladder pressure. Thanx

    Two pump situations

    I'm building a house in New Mexico and need advice on that house. I am currently living in Washington State and need advice on my current setup. In NM I have a 600' well in the valley below where my house is. The well pump fills an 1100 gallon cistern, 140' above the top of the well. There...
