We have a friend who has a water tank and he is going fix it so we can get water from the city water and use the water tank on the back of our truck till the water situation is fixed hopefully. RTR!

I found a website to calculate the number of gallons in a vertical cylinder. Based on the cylinder (well) being 49 feet deep, 8 feet in diameter and filled only 25 feet deep: the well would have a "filled volume" of 9400.30 gallons. Total volume, if filled to the top, the well would contain 18,424.59 gallons. Title: Re: How much water a well will hold?
