I think Darkman (another member) in the panhandle put one in about a year ago.....you could ask him, he uses a fair amount of water.

My kids, alittle south of you irrigate with shallow well.
The water is high in calcium and iron. Smells like hell also.
Places that have overspray have an iron stain but not strong.
HOWEVER .....I let my car get blasted for a week while I was gone ?
OMG?????WT?????
My black car was white with deposits.UGH

In Ohio water is somewhat inexpensive, it is the sewer cost factored in that drives up the cost.
I currently irrigate with "city" water .I would love to have a well.....just a few houses down they use lake water....arrrrg!
