[RE-wrenches] Off-grid deep well pumps

[PRP]

I have used a 1.5hp SQ for over 10 years with no problems is set at 350 feet and our house tank PSI is set at 60 PSI. 
We drip irrigate a large area and stock water for cattle. Works flawless on our system, the 240 V soft start is real nice to our slow acting Magnum inverters.
