Subject: RE: Just finished a 385 ft deal, used a Lorenz


New Mexico
ps1200. Cost new well whole deal 4 panel system w adjustable controller was $21,670.

The afore is on all Fed dirt ( National Grasslands/Forest Service), soo is a graze out improvement deal which we pay for upfront.
It'll take 12 to 20 years to graze it out ( 40 to 60 cows on that deal year around ).

Kinda sucks because the reason all the wells in that area had to be redrilled deeper is due to a few 500 acre pivots going in next door to that unit ( not into private subsidies for what appears to be non caring pivot farmers ).


The one a couple months ago was a grundfos 1 panel unit at 60 ft...pumping 15 gpm continuous on that one.

I like the controller system ( cost was $1,060 for the controller setup ) for the Lorenz....everything totally adjustable.
Also the Lorenz is componentized ie pump seperate from motor etc....soo should be cheaper and easier to fix down the road.

Grundfos deal is all one unit...if the pump or motor an a grundfos bites the dust...one has to replace everything.
