I'm currently trying to figure out what pump would be suitable to replace my F&W deep well jet pump (three stage, 1hp). It's date code is 76H3 and is a model C6279. It seems to work OK but due to it's age the casting is rusting and flaking off. It might have been installed in 1977 because that's when my 2" well was installed. From the paperwork from the driller the screen is set between 116' and 220' down. The fitting on the bottom of this vertical pump looks to be a single 2" pipe running horizontally out of my basement about 2' under the ground surface. F&W's website doesn't mention a 3 stage. Only 2 stage. Most of my searching online mentions a 2 pipe. I would just like to swap out my pump as my finances won't allow a new well etc. I did come across this pump (Flotec 1 HP Multi-Stage Deep-Well Jet Pump) at a reasonable price from home depot but I don't know if they are reliable etc. any info on this topic would be greatly appreciated.
thanks for your time, schudaddie
