Low pressure
We are currently experiencing low water pressure in our house. Our well is 70 years old. It is located on a family farm. It has been a good dependable well. At one point, there were three houses connected to that well with few issues. Our house is the only one still on the well. The well is about 800 feet from our house. We connected to it in the late '70s when we built our home. We live on a family farm, and the other two homes were family. Eventually they connected to another water source. I am not sure how deep the well is. The health department says they don't have records that far back. It has a non-submersible jet pump. Over the past few years, I have put in two different pressure tanks with bladders, both of which ruptured. I am currently using one of those tanks with the ruptured bladder as a pressure tank which, of course, gets waterlogged from time to time. I am considering replacing the tank with a new tank that has a replaceable bladder. The pump is fairly new. The pressure at the well is good and fills up a gallon container quickly. It takes about 30 seconds to fill a gallon container at an outside spigot at the house. When we run the washing machine, we have very little water at other sources in the house. This has not always been the case. I am pretty much a DIYer, having grown up on a farm, and I have replaced pumps and pressure tanks myself, so I am willing to try repairs myself, but wells are sort of a mystery. I wonder if our water table has dropped and if I should extend the pipe into the well. I welcome any other solutions and suggestions that people with actual well drilling and pump maintenance experience may have. I thank you in advance.
