Hi,

As I said in my previous question, I finally got the well working. Initially the water was quite dirty and now it cleared up but still has strong sulphur smell. Could anyone tell me the reason? I am in Pinellas county, Florida. I will fill the swimming pool with the well water. Is there anything I need to pay attention? The pump was about 20 gpm so it may take whole day to fill 30,000 gallons swimming pool. Could I run the pump continuously until the pool is filled?

Thanks.

Hey Neighbor,

" It still has strong sulphur smell. Could anyone tell me the reason? I am in Pinellas county, Florida."
I'll bet you haven't lived in Florida very long if this is the first time you've run into sulphur water. You just answered you own question. We have a lot of "sulphur water" in our area. The only way to get rid of the smell when it comes out of the ground is a aeration tank, but it should aerate itself just setting in your swimming pool. Enjoy!

We have run our pool pump for longer then 24 hours. You might check the housing for overheating from time to time but you ought to be OK.
Good luck, tom
