I am in construction of our new mobile home on my daughter and son-in-law's 10 acre property. Their house is located at the top of the property's ridge, about 200 feet above us. The property has one well at the bottom of the hill which feeds their house through a 2500 gallon holding tank at the top of property. I need to divide the well supply line at the bottom to feed their house on top as well as our new mobile home at the bottom of the hill. I also have a 2500 gallon holding tank near our new house. The pump system for our house has yet to be installed. A further complication to my problem is that the automatic pump switch from the float in their tank no longer functions due to problems with the wiring somewhere along the 200' climb up the hill. I installed in the main water supply line, two ball valves. Each valve must be shut or opened to fill either their tank or mine manually. Some of the PVC turns I installed has resulted in sediment build up which caused a blockage and no water to their house temporarily. My question is how to properly divide the main water supply line from the well to each house and make this convienient to operate? Any ideas?
