Hi,
We just drilled our well on our vacant lot for a future house here in Central Washington (the state). I think we got pretty lucky. The well is 6" in diameter, 77' deep, and we hit water at 65' in basalt. We got a water flow in excess of 50 gallons/minute. The final water level is 2' below ground level and we have 4' of well casing above the ground (the water level is about 6' below the top of the well casing). We plan to build a 2 or three bedroom home....pretty standard requirements and are limited by the County in irrigated land to 1/2 acre - a nice size garden and yard.
I assume we would want to use a submersible well. I was just reading up CSV's (cycle stop valves) - had never heard of them before.. I have a Sta Rite 10gpm, 3/4hp 230v pump and control box, but would put it on **** and replace it with something else if recommended. I also have access to a Grundfos .33 hp 10gpm 230v pump (S series - not the constant pressure type).
Any recommendations would be great...
Thanks!!
