    Water line
    My dad has a well with his house and one other and I am going to hook on to it but my house is 1100ft away.
    I was going to put a pump and blatter tank on at my dads well then send to my house a 1000ft away and put a 1500gal tank and another pump and blatter tank at the tank.
    I need to see if this will work and how do you hook these all together.

    Please edit your post and use a few capital letters and periods. I can't figure out what you are saying other than your house will be 1000 feet from your fathers. It looks like you want to put in two tanks and two pumps.

    What size pressure line are you going to use? You're going to hafta figure friction line loss into your job. How much PSI at the wellhead will the pump put out? Here's a example. Starting with 60 PSI at the well head and using 1" PVC for a service expect a loss of about 5 PSI every 150 feet. More if you're pumping up hill. If you want answers from us you're going to hafta give us something to work with. Why the 1500 gallon storage tank?
    I've edited your first post and made it readable. Please pay attention to the punctuation and spacing in you next post and please give us some details to work with. Tom
