Greetings Fellow Wrenches,
  Tomorrow I head out to finish an installation of an ETA Pump that is 
to be installed with an existing 240v submersible. Panels to disco 
and controller conduit to well head is already in place so I'm hoping 
for a somewhat shorter day than the first. I've never dropped a 
second pump next to an existing before and wondering if anyone out 
there has any helpful tips or recommendations from experience they've 
had with such an install. The well has a 6" casing and the existing 
pump utilizes a 1" discharge pipe so I'm hoping for a smooth drop. It 
will be lowered by the owner and myself by hand almost 240' with many 
opportunities to snag on the existing pump, especially if the bundle 
wraps were spaced further rather than closer apart. One of my fears 
is that it will snag and force us to pull up the existing and lower 
both at the same time which is impossible to accomplish with just two 
people. What would be the ideal distance of separation between the 
two pumps in the well?

  Any tips or recommendations would certainly be helpful from those 
with any experience on such an install. Also, any resources on where 
to get dual discharge and electrical port well seals? I was 
successful at getting one fabricated from our local well supplier but 
at $120 it seems there must be a better resource available.

As always thanks for your time,

Nick A Lucchese
