I have a hard rock well about 700' deep. Steel cased for 40' only. The static water level is at 145'. The well is said to produce 4GPM. I will pump up a hill to a 3,000 gallon tank and use level controls for a drawdown of about 1,000 gallons. The elevation change will give about 60psi at the house.
If I pump the well at 2GPM, can it be assumed that the water level will not drop greatly from the static level of 150'? I would like to use 1 loop of 200psi poly and set the pump at 300', rather than a 700' string of hard pipe with its greater difficulties of installation and removal.
Its an old little used well and has no information available. It may be assumed that the driller hit water 5 or 600 feet down, and the water rose to 145'.
