This is the complete Well Project from Discovery while working on Project Chicken on June 25, 2022, then finally getting serious about getting it running in December 2023 to completing the first stage of the project and having a working well and storage system by the end of February 2024.
The next stage will involve setting up Solar power so the well will function in a Grid Down scenario.

The pump is a 12 VDC Eco-Worthy well pump that I am currently running of either a 40 Volt Kobalt Battery with a step down converter, or a 120 VAC to 12VDC power converter.

The pump is about 75 feet down the old well, and is feeding a 275 Gallon IBC tote, after passing thru a particle filter and a Calcite pH Neutralizing Filter.
