Default How can I start a 220V well pump in a blackout if I don't have a 220V generator?

"By the way, if your well pump is very old, you may want to consider
replacing it anyway. Newer motors run on much less power than ones
built
just 10 years ago. "

You'd have to pump a hell of a lot of water for any difference in pump
efficiency to make up the cost of a new submersible pump, including
installation.
