Thank you, Valveman! Now I am actually looking forward to this next part of the project.

So would it be better to just use a dole valve to restrict the pump flow while I'm doing the developing? With no back pressure up top, my TDH will only be 60-70 ft. That's way outside the pump curve for the 18gpm 1hp I was planning on using.

Oh, thank you! That was what I was hoping to hear. I am planning on using a cycle stop valve and small tank to pressurize the system. Will the sand be a problem for the CSV?

Long time lurker here...I have found LOTS of answers to previous questions by searching the forums. But nothing quite specific enough for my current situation. Sorry in advance for the long setup. I'm just getting power to the site of my 1 year old well. There is no house yet on the property...
