simple/easy/practical.

So that's the idea,the concept but that pump most likely cannot lift the water 30 feet or so,but there are lots of pumps out there.



Such a pump will run in continuous until the power is cut off. With that method of drawing water you will have some details to work out . Which means you have to think your project through and get creative. You need a pump capable of lifting the water 20/30/40 feet. A veritable speed on the pump motor would be helpful if you can find one that has that option -regulate the flow. With the standard garden house connected into the suction and down into the well and the 2nd. to discharge you can water away. You still have yer details to work out. So, you would or will need to find out the pump capabilities regarding lift. my guess under $200.00 for a basic water transfer pump .










Unless of course you want to spend some real money to bring that well back fully operational.

Lots of pumps to look at. The lift capability is the key.
