Colleagues:
All of our water pumping customers to date have been pumping water to tanks higher in elevation than the well-head. Just now I am looking at a system pumping to a pond that is lower than the well-head and lower even than the bottom of the well. The 300’ well has the head at 1200’ elevation and pumping to a pond at 800’ elevation. The line goes over a 1500’ ridge. If there were nothing impeding the water flow, would it not siphon to the pond? Has anyone seen the basic physics available being used to advantage? Thanks in advance.
