well is 25 feet deep, need to deliver water to building approx. 100 feet away, will it deliver water there without a pressure tank

The main thing the pressure tank does: without one, when you turn on a tap just a trickle, the pressure drops and the pressure switch closes, turning on the pump. The pump kicks on, shooting the pressure up and opening the pressure switch, turning off the pump. The pressure drops, the pressure switch closes... Repeat, as the pressure-switch contacts burn away. You need a pressure tank. 40-ish gallon is usual for a home.

At 25 feet your pressure will loose pressure as it is. You can deliver water to 100 feet away, how ever your pressure will be low. Putting a pressure tank will help you somewhat, but the volume will be a little lower than you would probably want.

The need for a pressure tank is not really related to the deptjh of the well or the distance from the building. You need a pressure tank to handle the pressure surges caused when the pump starts and stops. The tank has an air volume that is highly compressible (compared to the compressibiity of water), so you maintain pressure within a reasonable band. Without a tank, as the pump begins to send water to the system, the pressure rises very rapidly, sending a signal to turn off the pump. The pressure then drops nearly as rapidly, calling for the pump to turn back on. This cycling is very damaging to both the system piping and the pump.Bottom line - get a pressure tank.

My guess is no. My pump is pulling out of a well about 13 ft deep and then up a 6% grade about 25 yards but I have a pressure tank with it..

if you go to Wayne pumps.com manuals and literature you will find the manual for your pump she tells you the lift heightEtc. once the water is up it will flow horizontally no prob the pressure tank will make it so you don't have to turn it on and off the pressure switch come on when you turn the faucet or Hose on.

You will a pressure tank, I have a small passive tank with bladder, it also helps to keep the pump primed.

No...you have to supply your own hose. I think the maximum length you can use is 100'.

A pressure tank is not required but it will help the pump not kick on and off as often. I used a red lion 33.

No, if you use it with a 1/4" drip line, you will need to include a separate 25 psi pressure reducer

We have ours on a raised patio, to get there we ran a long hose from the faucet under a deck and up to the patio. This makes our leader 25 feet or more. Works fine.

Not sure in distance. But does pump good pressure if u have a way to regulate it

This is a great pump, but it does need a sump pit to operate correctly. There are pumps that would work well in your situation without a sump pit. Once example would be the Tsurumi Pump LSC residue pump. It can pump water down to 1/16". You can find them here on Amazon.

It seems to pump fine, for the length of hose that comes on it. You would not be able to be much higher than the supply tank. But there's only enough hose to reach about 2 ft. I set it on the deck of my mower and it just reaches the tank and fills fine. My batteries go dead between uses if I leave them in it for even a week. I assume there's a resistor across the switch to keep it from arching when turning on or off.

Yes, but run the hose through PVC pipe. I have 150' under ground in pipe only a few inches deep.It works great.

I've got this pump sitting at the bottom of my rain-barrel pushing water through a "DIG" micro-irrigation kit that is watering over 20 plants/bushes spread out amongst 100' of tubing, and its got plenty of umph, so I can't imagine you'd have any problems moving water 4.5ft.

Short answer is no it will not draw from 82 feet... BUT You say you well is 82 feet deep but is the static water level actually higher ? This pump will only draw from about 20-25 deep if your water level is standing in the well at that close then it will work.... Drop a weighted string down the pipe and check you water level within the pipe for a simple quick test....

It does work without an inpur tank. We just use the pipe and ozonator stone inclused.

You would probably need a hose and water pump for that application. With hose hook up it works great

It is a point for a shallow well. Attach pipe to it and drive it to the depth needed to have a good water supply. Install a shallow well pump or hand pump if you are away from power. Used for watering gardens or for cabins away from water supplys or watever. Check the regulations in your area, driven wells are not always approved of.

At least 50 - 60 ft. And I have well water, which doesn't get the pressure city water does.

You have to buy a pump to send the water back to the tank. It doesn't come with one. Some do but not this one.

I had the 50 ft and it never worked for me. That being said i have low water pressure due to the fact that i have well water not city. If you have strong faucet pressure i have seen them work over 100 feet
