Which Well?
If your well looks like this, it has a submersible pump with a pitless adapter and the chances are very good that installation will be a breeze if the casing is 6 inches or greater (Michigan has many 5 inch casings ! Michigan click HERE) It is best to remove the cap and use a flashlight to visually confirm that your well has the required gap between the pitless adapter and the well casing to install the pump you have selected.

The following clearances are needed
AK pump 1.9 "
AJ pump 1.66"
SJ pump 1.315"
If you have any question about the clearance in your well, perform the Clearance test.
If your well is used for irrigation, pond filling, fire suppression, has a pressure tank in the well (mobile homes) or was drilled before 1990; definetly perform the clearance test. If there is any questions take a photo of what you see inside and email it to us.
If your well is in a pit, a pumphouse, has pipes coming out of the top of the well cap, is hand dug or you have a pressure tank in the well or otherwise abby normal, go to the Weird Well tab.
