The nightmare continues! Having to build back up system using two 275 gallon tanks & a shallow well pump. We're going to tie into the main bypassing the well head. So, waiting on tanks to be delivered, this back up system is something I can set up on vacant properties in the future.

Our neighbors well is less than 30ft from the tanks. They're really good neighbors.

The local service company drilled the well 32 years ago. Roger's Plumbing. They estimate 4 to thousand to change out the Deep Well Pump. But, what they do is change 5 times the cost of the pump to get their cost paid up front. So, you can pay 3 grand down & pay they rest off monthly. But, we have a large family with multiple properties North South East & West of Albuquerque. So, we're going to pull it ourselves using equipment we already have, a Tri Pod and several nephews & cousins. The 1hp pump will cost about 8 hundred & the labor of our family another thousand. This is why young people should have lots of children. When your SOL, your family will always be there! 👍
