How Do You Choose The Right Well Water Pump?
Water well pumps are a vital part of a home's plumbing system. They allow the water to flow from a drilled hole to facilitate all your daily needs.
When making the purchase, you should do it carefully by considering all the factors that will influence its performance and the additional costs.
The factors you need to consider
- Determine how deep your water will be
The deeper the well, the more powerful the pump you need. Shallow wells need a 1/2 horsepower pump, anything over 40 feet requires at least one HP, while over 80 feet requires at least two HP. - The amount of electricity that the pump will use
If your power supply is limited, choose a low-power/high-volume pump. If not, you can opt for a high-power/low-volume pump. - Durability of the system
If you live in hard water or corrosive soil conditions, it would be better to buy an all-metal pump that has been treated. - Maintenance issues
If you only need to use your water intermittently, a submersible or deep well jet system may be efficient as they do not require routine maintenance. - How much water the pump will move per minute
Most submersible pumps are available in 5-GPM, 7.5-GPM, 10-GPM, and 15-GPM capacities.
