We put in a water well for our sprinkler system only. It is certainly drinkable water, but it is not hooked into our house water system. The well drilling company wanted to quote the pump and a pressure tank. I told him no pressure tank and he was saying the pump would be over pressured and I told him it is only for the sprinkler system. The system knows to open a valve and then kick on the pump. The pump goes off and then the last valve closes. Never any high pressure to worry about. I went for total overkill on the system. The pump is a 220 volt 1.5 HP pump putting out 18 gallons a minute. I have 99 spray heads. I will never do another sprinkler system install myself. That resembles real work.
