For
Homeowners sizing private-well and septic systems
Worth noticing
Pump sizing rounds up to the next listed depth and pressure point, which the site says makes the result err on the safe side.

Field notes

The pump workflow combines lift, pressure, and pipe friction to estimate total dynamic head, then matches flow requirements against published Goulds 10GS ratings. Its pressure-tank explanation uses the example of a 39.5-gallon tank, with 10.2 gallons drawn between cut-out and cut-in. The septic section presents bedroom-based minimums drawn from state rules; the page says 47 states set a statewide figure.
