I have constructed a borewell near the Electronic City in Bangalore. We got 1/2 inch water source at 260 feet, and 1/2 inch water source at 440 feet (This was a silt source). We still continued further till 825 feet and stopped there.

Now the borewell company suggested me to go for a borewell compressor since the yield of water is around 3/4 inch source. We have only single phase electricity supply. I contacted one of the motor dealers in Bangalore who suggested for 2 HP Double cylinder belt type compressor. He told that we could put the air and water pipe upto 650 feet depth.

My questions are

1) Can we put water pipe till 650 feet depth.

2) Can a 2 HP double cylinder belt compressor suck water till 650 feet depth in a single phase electricity supply.

Awaiting your reply.

Thanking you in advance.

Raj.
