There are unknowns. Could be going 150 ft, could be drilling 450 ft. Could encounter rock. Could be dry and have to drill again elsewhere.
You’ll pay by the foot to drill, and you’ll want a minimum, adequate flow for the house size. No guarantees on finding water or enough of it. Water testing may result in a variety of needs to purify - some just need a softener, other need UV and other items.
If you lose electricity, you lose water. Gotta have it for the pump.
All told, I think it tastes better and at least I know what’s in it!
