I just bought a piece of land that has a well on it. There is no pump on it though. It is just a pipe in the ground (1 1/2" I think) and a 1" pipe inside that. I don't know how deep it is but I think it's at least 200'. It looks like the water comes up at least a couple of feet from the top of the small pipe. I would like to use this well for irrigation purposes. I don't know if this is what they call a shallow well or a deep well. I was looking at a shallow well pump that has a 5 gallon tank on it. Its 1 HP, pumps 898 gallons per hour and a suction depth of 26 ft. Maximum lift is 164 ft and a 1" discharge line. This will only be used to water a garden and lawn. Do you think this will work? Any help is appreciated. Thanks
