Solar pumps pro & Cons

Cons: 1. Need clean well or don't mind changing filter screen periodically 2. Reliability of pump 3. Initial cost---approximately 2000 dollars 4. Cost of replacement pump Pros. 1. Install & forget. 2. sufficient water 3. No power concerns If I were to pick a system, would go with 1/2 hp submersible with the independent of power company power supply. Failing that go with power company. Many are very pleased with solar systems. However, I know of a number of farmers that have gone back to mills or submersibles.
