Hi Dan, Thanks for responding. It is the $2300 boost pump I'm trying to stay away from if at all possible, because this is going to involve an additional outlay in costs for the motor, wiring and not to mention the extra monthly charges. I'm trying to keep from paying for two motors on one well. Since that 30 horse electric pump motor at the well has to be replaced anyway to get the flow back up to around 800 gpm or better, wouldn't it make sense to just drop a 50 horse motor on the wellhead and try it? I remember the well man telling me back in the '80s when they were putting in the 4-stage bowls that I could push a circle if I wanted. At that time, this seemed completely absurd to me. Now, technology has proven that the pivot is far more effecient, hence the installation. But, I'm more than positive that the correct bowls are already in place. Can they test the pressure using a run of gated pipe or something? Thanks for your help, Allan
