Default Wells again...

Any reason I couldn't use this pump and a same level storage tank to
feed it, to feed my house till I get this well thing straightened out?

Thanks for any input...

You mean, other than it has a total head lift of 98 feet and isn't
suitable for drinking water? Yeah, sure...go for it.

Don't know about the Harbor Freight pump but we use one of these from
Home Depot as our salt water wash down pump for cleaning the chain,
anchor, etc. :

We got ten years out of our first one in a salt water environment and
some heavy duty usage.
