I've been reading different topics, and I've seen several comments that say not to use a "safety" rope/cable on a submersible pump. I'm just curious what the rational is for using one or not. I'm getting ready to pull a pump from about 30 feet. The downpipe has a crack or something. It has a rope on it, it's old, faded, etc. I figure on using the down pipe to pull it up, just curious about replacing the rope. Seems to make sense to me, but then again I've never been around wells before the last four years.
The pump being pulled has a PVC casing that is cracked at the top and otherwise open, used only for irrigation but when I build a new barn it will supply that. I plan to replace the pipe and wiring, fix the casing and add a well seal.
Thanks for the comments. I greatly appreciate the knowledge I've gained from this forum.
