Hi Jay,
If it hasn’t been mentioned yet, a surface pump will break suction or cavitate
if too high from the source, so I’d put it in the hole so it’s not more than 6’
to 9’ above the static water level in the well. You will need a way to prime
the pump too.

Jay,
Is that 140 “feet” of head, or really 140 psi (about equal to 323 ft of
head at sea level)? I’ll assume the 140 psi
And I’ll assume that you want to run the pump PV-direct, without batteries
or an inverter.
Can the “well” be dug deeper? If they can dig it out another few feet or
so, c
