The water level of our lake changes by over 4 feet by October. Our cottage is about 20 feet above the water level by then and about 75 or so feet away from the shore. Our 1/2 hp jet pump stops being able to attain proper pressure and turn itself off by October 1st.
Would a 3/4 hp pump solve this problem? I see most 3/4 pumps have the same recommended maximum height of 25', and one says it will work with a 90' drop.
We've thought of moving the pump further down the slope to the lake (and wonder if that would work) or should we just get a stronger pump?
Would a 3/4 pump be a lot noisier? Currently the pump is under the cottage. Thanks so much for any thoughts!
