Hi Guys, I hope someone out there can help me. Without going into blow by blow details, the problem is this: I'm putting a center pivot on one of my places which has been in flood irrigation since 1948. It already has a well and the underground pipe is already in place. I pulled the well in about 1980 or so, and put in a Western Land Roller 4-stage set of bowls. These replaced the original 2-stage bowls, which had been in operation since the well was drilled in the early '50s by my Dad. The young man who is renting the place tells me that the people who are installing the pivot want to first test the well (which is fine with me) and then pull it and install a set of 4-stage bowls. My question is this: Is there a difference in bowls? Is there a "pressure" bowl vs an open discharge bowl? I think the well already has the proper bowls, because we had to turn the thing down because it was pumping way too much water to handle(1000 gal) at that time (1980). Can someone help? Anyone? Thanks, Allan
