Last week I bought an Eco Flow Delta Pro (3600w) solar gen to run our small off grid cabin (so we don't have to run the obnoxious 11KW Generac propane gen). The Delta Pro runs everything great w/ the 400w panel except the well pump. The well pump is 110v, 1/2hp but it shuts off the Delta Pro only at start up, surge at start up must be high.
The well is 40' deep and within 25 feet of the house. We have a good sized pressure tank in the cabin. The cabin has a regular electric panel that I hook either the big propane gen into or the Delta Pro via an adaptor. This is my first foray into the solar world and I'm at a loss... Is there any well pump that I can replace my current well pump with that the Delta Pro will run? Does it have to be a solar well pump? If the Delta Pro ever gets low I will just charge it with the Generac so I don't have to worry about not having enough solar. Budget can go to $1500. This group has been great as I've been on daily for weeks reading and learning.
