Pumps, Wells, Tanks, Controls / Pond well

« on: April 28, 2010, 08:51:58 PM »

I have a 6" well with a 7.5hp pump free flowing into my pond. Since the pond is now filled I would like to accomplish two things, First to provide household and irrigation water and second to provide an adjustable flow to the pond to balance seepage and evaporation. My thought is to put a cycle stop valve on the branch to the house and a ball valve on the branch to the pond. The pump would run continuously as it does now. Will this work or is there a better approach?
