New guy needs advice on overwhelming pump graphs for Off-Grid.

Thank you both for the replies.
There's more than one way to pump water..or to pump the same water twice! Hahaha

I'm going to have to dig a little deeper into what CSV and VFD means but I appreciate the diagram and breakdown between wattage use.

Valveman- I misspelled the 5SQ pump I was looking at. I meant to type 270, not 170.

The 270 is a 3/4HP but would be a good choice for the depth of the well plus building 40/60 pressure. However, if using a cistern only for house supply the 230 would work in the well. I would still use the 10SQ05 for the cistern pump boosting to the house. The SQ has the built in soft start which works well with inverters and solar. But solar will require fewer batteries if the SQ is just controlled with a big pressure tank and pressure switch. You can either store water in a big pressure tank or have an extra battery to supply water as needed with a VFD or CSV.
