hand or pitcher well pump

[ihuntbear]

good day

I'm having a problem with my well at the camp when i use the pitcher pump.This well was put in last summer 100 feet deep.Water is 32 feet from the top with 60 feet of casing.I have a submerible for when I use the generator witch is only when I fill the reserve tank on the roof.Other than that I use the deep well pitcher pump.My problem is when I use the submergible that is 75 feet down the water is clear but when I use the picher pump the water tastes like iron and turns brown after about five gallons or so.I called the well people they have no clue how to fix .Do you people have any ideas how to fix it.As I said in other post my camp is in the middle of 900 acres with no power lines.I think the bottom of the pitcher pump is still in the casing.Does this need to be below the casing ?

I gather you are saying the hand pump just goes into the water nearer the surface and the possibility that you are skimming "brown" water off the top of the "head" ?

What does a glass of that water look like after it has a chance to settle out in the glass?



Might need to extend it further down if that is the case, and put the leathers on an extension.

i think the hand pump goes down 55 ft and the casing is 60 ft.submergible is 75 ft.water turns clear after setting for a while but still taste like steel.would a new casing cause that

Could it be the dead water sitting in the hand pump tubing with a steel sucker rod.
