10' is a big one. I think the one here is an 8', put up probably in the late 30's or early 40's. I think it has a 2 3/4" pump at 15' in a shallow well. 40' to the platform on the tower.
The mill still works on ours but the pump needs replaced. Last time we pulled the pump the leathers were shot and dad patched them up to get it going, but the whole pump portion in the well needs redone. Low on the priority list, since we don't use the well any more, but I would like to get it all working again some day, just for nostalgia reasons.
This Aermotor has been around for 75+ years so if yours lasts that long, it should serve you well for a long time.
