Well drilling questions

[Dirt Buster]

I'm thinking of drilling a well at my car wash that has two self serve bays and 1 IBA. We have been doing about 40 cars a day on average and on a busy day expect to get up to 90 or so.

What is your recommendation on gallons per minute for the well?

The well company I've talked to recommended doing a constant pressure system instead of a conventional well. Thoughts on this?

How big of a holding tank would you recommend? The well drilling company didn't think I'd need a big one.

And any other advice you want to share. Thank you!

Check your city regulations first. Cities want you to eliminate the possibility of any cross connection, from well to city water. There are a few different ways to do this. This is the first step.
