Hello all, newbie here on this great site. I’m ready to have a crew come and replace my submersible well pump. My well was drilled in 1994 and is 520 feet deep. The control box is a franklin for a 1 1/2 hp pump. I’m assuming it’s the original pump but have no records that the pump was ever replaced.
my question is was there a time frame when well companies stopped using galvanized pipe and started using pvc? The reason I asked was the crew coming out said there may be a chance they used galvanized pipe instead of pvc, and recommended it be replaced with pvc which I think that sounds reasonable. It just increases the bill dramatically If there is galvanized pipe in there. Thanks everyone!
