Well water supply

From the well
to the point of use.

Choose the borehole pump around the water you need to deliver, the operating water level and the installation space available.

Understand the system

From the borehole to the tank

The water level while pumping and the height of the delivery point help define the job. Well depth alone is not enough to select a pump.

A submerged borehole pump lifts water to an elevated tank. Vertical lift starts at the pumping water level; pipe losses and delivery pressure also affect the required head.
Water flow
  1. Water source

    The pump operates below the pumping water level. Well yield and pump clearance also need checking.

  2. Lift and pipe run

    The pump must deliver the required flow against the lift, pipe losses and any outlet pressure.

  3. Water at the tank

    Tank volume and the available filling time help us work out a suitable flow rate.

Simplified system view. Controls, valves and installation details depend on the site.

Have a well report or a sketch of the pipe run? Send it over and we can help with the next step.

Define the task

Keep the water levels separate.

01

The well

Record the actual casing diameter, well depth, static and pumping water levels, and available yield. These describe different parts of the installation.

02

The delivery

Describe where the water goes, the required flow, the elevation and any pressure needed at the destination.

For a useful recommendation

Well depth alone
does not define the duty.

The lifting task begins at the water level while pumping. Delivery elevation, pipe losses and required outlet pressure also matter. Add the intended setting depth as installation information.

Build a selection brief
Water source
Well dimensions, pumping water level, sustainable yield and water characteristics.
Delivery
Required flow, delivery point and pipe route; daily volume if relevant.
Power & operation
Voltage, phase, frequency and tank-level or pressure-control requirements.
New or replacement
For a replacement, include the model, motor information and current performance.

Before you choose

A few useful
questions.

Which water level should I provide?

Provide static and pumping water levels if available, and label them clearly. If only the drilled depth is known, say which other measurements are still missing.

Can I start without knowing the total head?

Yes. Describe the operating water level, delivery elevation, pipework and required pressure. These details help define the duty before a model is confirmed.

The pump is one part of the installation

Keep the route and connections
in the same request.

Explore borehole pump series, then check the well and delivery duty together.

These are product directions, not an automatic pump selection. We’ll confirm the duty, installation and electrical fit for the proposed model.
