I recently had a well drilled and am in need of some advice and recommendations. The well was drilled by a local driller, that is about the only one around here that is drilling. He just drills, dosen't set pumps or do any plumbing. So my dilemma is do I do it myself or hire it done. My Brother in law is a Master plumber, and works at a supply house, but has never set a well pump.
Here are the specs on the well.
6" Well with only the first 12 feet cased.
I have heard the term screened well but not exactly sure what that is? And my driller didn't say anything about a screened well. Is that something that I would need to do before setting a pump? Sorry for my ignorance.
He hit water at 135', drilled to a total depth of 167'. I measured the static level at 85'. 10 GPM
I am intereseted in the CSV and going the Pside-kick route, but not sure what pump to run (brand, size, etc..)? The supply house my BIL works for carries Franklin pumps. Does anyone have any opinions on them?
My neighbors have a to filter their well water for Iron, so I am probably going to have to have some sort of filter, but not sure if that effects what type of pump I need or whether or not the Pside-kick system is effected by that. I am assuming I could come directly out of the Pside-kick system directly into a filter if needed?
Thanks for any help
