I have a large diesel generator, but it does not power our well, which is about 600 feet away from the house.
I'm looking at putting in a solar/battery backup system.
Batteries that will run a 240 volt well pump, and a few solar panels to keep the batteries topped off.
A well pump, like a sump pump, only runs intermittently, so it should run for an extended period on battery alone.
Solar panels are a bonus.
