<div>The first question that ought to be asked here is the state of the
well. Is 300 feet the static water level or is it the pump level?
Standard pump installations automatically put pumps at or near the bottom of the
well to use the static water as a buffer if the pump puts out more than or near
the recharge rate of the well. But if you’re pumping at less than the
recharge rate you don’t need to be too deep and depending on the static water
level you may not even need to use 230VAC. </div>
