pumps and pumping equipment vary in their ability to draw water from various depths. A shallow well pump can only draw water from a maximum depth of about 20', and for these shallow water table depths, 1-1/4" diameter well pipe is sufficient. A deep-well pump installation is necessary if the water table is deeper than about 20'.
