Moved to the country recently and would like a well to maintain my 1/2 acre pond and supply the 2 bathroom, kitchen, laundry, dishwasher, 1500sq ft house I am building. So at this point I have gotten two different quotes on two different systems, each contractor claims his systems is better. Looking for an unbaised opinion, since I am in Louisiana and you have nothing to gain from your suggestion I would like your take. I am told by both that the depth would be between 300' and 400', this is the only thing they agree on.
System 1)
2" pipe to 400'
1/2 hp pump above ground
42 gallon tank
System 2)
It is called 4 X 2
2" pipe to 300' then 4" pipe on top to a total depth of 400'
1 hp submersible pump
80 gallon tank
Water table I am told is around 20'.
Taking cost out of the picture which is the better system?
Long term pros and cons, maintenance and satisfaction?
Thanks
