I am about to install a pump in my well, and the guy designing my irrigation system wants me to use a pitless adaptor in my well, saying this system will be better-off for me, as I plan to run several hose bibs around my yard, for tree watering, as well as my sprinkler system, for my grass.
He says if I ran a pressure tank, with my hose bib set-up, when I use the hose hook-up, it will cause my pump to continue to cycle on and off, which could be hard on the pump. He says a pitless adaptor will be easier on the pump, the only thing is, I will have to water a zone of my lawn, when I want to use my hose bib.
My neighbor says this is wrong, as it was explained to him by the guy that trenched his water lines to his house. Keep in mind, I don’t know squat about this stuff (I’m a rookie acreage owner, learning as I go...), so I might not have heard everything correctly, from any of the parties I talked to. Does any of this sound right! Any advise would be greatly appreciated,
Thanks
