How in the world do you get 40 years out of a pump?

20 years would be quite impressive!

Interesting about the well construction. I have jetted them here down to a 20' or so depth ending up with an 1 1/4" PVC well. The professionals do the same but with dedicated tanker trucks & pumps and they leave a 2" PVC size.

Goulds is the gold standard around here. For these shallow wells we use centrifugals - usually 1 1/2 HP. I thought about putting an on-demand one in here using a jet pump and might one day just for hose bibs outside. I use city water for household needs and for outside hose bibs.

PS - Nice pics, Jolly!
