First time poster here. I am having a new well drilled next week and hope for some good advise. This well will be for irrigating a bunch of young pecan trees. The well guy has dug other wells in the area and believes he'll hit "good" water at 200'. Also will be a 4" pipe and 1 1/2HP pump. He also thinks it will be about a 10 GPM well. So after some research, I think I would like to use a Cycle
Stop Valve and a smaller pressure tank. What should I expect as far as what the well driller will provide on this job? He has quoted a price/ft for drilling and then a ball-park for every thing else. Example $17/ft then quoted about $6000.00 for the total job. What does the "total job" usually mean? I am in a rural(no inspection) area. I also would like to use a Franklin motor based on what I have read. Is it unreasonable to ask for these things when I have the well dug? du
