My well is not producing as much water as normal. It has always had a 3 GPM flow restrictor on it since we have lived here, about sixteen years. The well is a 4 inch casing at 100 Ft. It was drilled many years ago, not sure when. Today I turned the pump on and could pump 12 gallon of water in...

I have a drilled well with a 4" casing at 96' deep. In 2002 I put a new pump. Two weeks ago I started having water problems again. Today I raised the pump enough to drop a line down the well to see if it was dry. It shows that I have 43 ft of water in the casing. When I fill the casing with...
