The well was drilled back in 2004 and has never been used. The static water level is 19'. The well log says the hole is 6 3/4" with a 5" PVC casing going all the way down to 1004' and a 8 5/8" steel casing going down the first 20'.
I plan on building a pretty big home but with very minimal landscaping. I live in NM and we don't do big yards here. It'll probably be around 3500 sq/ft with 4 bathrooms with some xeriscaping and a few trees.
What kind of set up would you recommend? After doing some research it seems that some people with a low yield well like mine set up a storage tank/cistern with a submersible pump and pressure tank on the house side of the storage tank. Seems like a pain for a set up like mine where I'm doing a minimal amount of irrigation.
I was thinking of getting a Goulds 7GS15 at 650'. That would give me about 630 gallons of reserve water and I don't think I'd need anything more than 7 gpm for my house. With a CSV and a cycle sensor I'd be okay with this set up right? Any idea what CSV I'd need with this set up?
What would you do with such a deep, low yield well?
