Okay, for starters, I have no idea how many GPM my pump/well is rated for now. From what I remember, it is somewhere around 200-250' deep, but the water table here is really shallow. My neighbor has lived here forever and offered to "witch it", but for aesthetic reasons, I put it where I wanted it. While he was cleaning out a pond on his farm across the street last summer, he hit water at 20' and swears that the old home place well that waters his cows about 100' away from his newly renovated pond, is only 20' deep. That being said, I need something I can run once full, about three months a year to maintain level. I'm sure it will run for a while at first to get to full pool. The power bill will just have to take a backseat, for the moment, I have to protect my $22,000 pond investment! I still need good flow to the house though. I have options, within a reasonable amount distance (to access the power disconnect), I own thirty acres, but my pond and power are on the front ten.
