AC,
That's good info to keep in mind. I hadn't thought about my loop field sizing affecting different variables of my system in those regards. But that makes sense as I'm reading what you posted.
There are a lot of farmers around here that's had wells put in their farms, to water them during crop seasons. Rice, most especially, and all of the mosquitoes along with it!
I'll check into some resources around here and see what I can find out about the soil/rock conditions that may be in this area.
I have dug numerous holes in our land down to about 6', and it's almost solid clay the entire way down. I'm told that there is sand deeper than that but I haven't tried digging that far down yet. We have plenty of land area to work with, so that might give me the option of putting in horizontal slinky rather than vertical.
