I wanted to follow up with some new/final information.
The well guy confirmed it's a 7gpm pump with a 5hp motor. The reasoning for the 5hp motor was so we'd get into a motor with a 1500# thrust bearing rating, as the well guy felt we had a good bit of scale and corrosion present that could damage a lighter constructed motor.(I guess I'll never know the gpm for certain until I pull the pump someday when it fails) I'm not sure I truly buy into the motor upgrade story, but we'll roll with it and see what happens.
I've been playing around with the well over the past week and found that when I had a truly recovered well (10 minutes or longer), I could usually fill the accumulator without going dry (depended on how much I continued drawing off the tank as it was filling). I think for normal household uses, I'll be OK. My concern was that it seemed real easy to get into a dry pump condition and I could see that easily happening if the kids left the water running somewhere.
The well guy came back out this morning and installed a dry pump protector and it works as it's intended (it's actually the model used for a 1.5 to 3hp motor, because we're drawing amperage well below the 5HP full load amps)
Bottom line is this well should really have a smaller pump and a 2000 gallon storage system to be correctly configured.
With that in mind, if the pump goes out in the future, I'll pull it myself and install all the correct equipment. I'm looking at storage tank options so if I ever stumble upon a tank cheap, I'll buy it and have it in place and ready to go.
