Hello!
I am finally having a new well put in close to the house and I planned on a 4" submersible well, but when the contractor came out he recommended a airlift well. I am not sure which is a better system. He told me the airlift will have a pump above the groud and a 320 gallon holding tank that has a 1/2 HP pump in it to move water to the house.
My main goal with the new well is volume of water and water pressure. I want to be able to pump around 10gpm with my pressure being around 40.
Please let me know the pros and cons of these systems and what you all think is best. Price is almost the same so I am not factoring that into the decision.
