I've had a though knocking around for a bit now. When it comes to the hand pumps that one would use down their existing drilled wells - it always has a depth limit of the well, which in my case not doable. My question is:
My well is 500' deep. BUT what is my water table/height in the well pipe? If the level comes up to say 75' or closer to ground level - would one of those manual pumps work if the length of it's pipe were say 150 to 200'? In other words - the manual pump would not be drawing from the base of the well, but somewhere down the depth of the well. Is that doable???
(was gonna ask this in chat last night, but never even got to sit down to my supper til 10pm. Just a crazy day! sigh)
