I have a drilled well about 125' deep setup with a two pipe 1/2hp jet pump in the cellar.
Pipes enter steel casing through sanitary cap 2-'3' feet underground (actually in the old stone dug well which has been filled in).
I wish to raise the casing above grade so what is the best way to handle the pitless setup? Do you use two adapters? Have not seena good diagram of this setup. I was going to use something like a Merrell compression seal for casing extension with 6" pvc unless there is another way. I know welding is prefered with steel. I also am going to lower the two pipe further in the ground.
Thanks Again,
Steve
