My home was built in 1955 and was originally outside the city limits and has a well. I have lived here for 35 years and never used the well. A week ago I started replacing the well pump house roof and decided to remove the pump, holding tank and piping. Incidently, after 40 years, nothing unscrews anymore. The pump sat on top of the well casing and had a pair of hoses 35 feet long down to a metal object, actually a large rust clump. I haven't been able to find anything that fully describes the function of this rust clump. Does anyone have a source that shows more than a photo of a metal object they call an ejector?
The well casing is 8 inches internal diameter and water level is at 20 feet.I
