Hmmmm tough decisions. I literally may not have enough money to hire this out, but I am going to call around for quotes. Still have to pay the final installment to the driller, which has set me back $20k. The driller also seems to be fudging the depth a bit - he said it was 455' right after drilling but on the bill and well log he said 480', and logged that extra depth as dry... Could really use that extra thousand bucks right now, but not sure there's anything I can do.
I've now heard that Poly can be dangerous at these depths from a few sources. Why is that? Is it just that everything is dangerous for a homeowner at this depth, or does the poly pose a particular hazard.
I suppose if I laid out and threaded all the Sched 80/120 drop pipe, taped off all the wire, bought the pump and pitless at the best prices I can find, and just hired an installer to actually drop it, it may not add that much all told, but even just the supplies may be more than I have.
