Greetings Fellow Wrenches,
  I am aware that the Shurflo 9300 is not designed for pressure 
applications but I seem to recall hearing of success stories in the 
past. Not sure how long the success has lasted so I'm looking for any 
experience. Scrolling the manual results in no mention of it either 
way. This is not a typical design configuration for us but we have a 
customer that has standing water at 15' and already has possession of 
the pump. With the 15' of lift and 40 PSI the head calculates to half 
of what the pump is able to lift/ pressurize. Convincing him to go 
with a ETA Mini has been unsuccessful due to his finances and the 
Flowlight suspended in the well trick is not possible with a 6" well 
casing at 8000' above sea level (sort of risky as well). I seem to 
recall the problem pertaining to the constant pressure on the pump 
being the main problem and thought that may be solved with a check 
valve? At the same time that does not make a lot of sense since the 
water line on my system still has water in it below 170' of drop even 
a week after pumping. I'm waiting a call from Shurflo next week but 
the woman I spoke to there briefly thought that this application 
would work just fine, just looking for confirmation before I proceed 
with this design.

  Any experiences?

Thanks and have a great weekend, Nick
