Is my pump set too deep? 6" new well drilled to 720 feet, Yields about 3gpm. Goulds 7GS pump and 2hp motor. 34 picks of Shur-Align threaded drop pipe, 1 1/4" Sch 120. Pump set at about that depth, around 680 feet. Static water level is around 150 feet. 5 check valves. Looking at the Sch 120 discharge pressure charts, each foot x .433 +my 50 psi setting, seems like if I ever pump down to around 600 feet, I am close or at the bursting point.
Do I have this right? Should I be worried?
If so, how can I protect the system from pumping down past that point? Will my Pump Saver help?
