Well here's a puzzler, my well works fine most of the time, except whenever we have a very heavy rainfall. Duing those times I've noticed extra sediment in my sediment filter (sand) and the pump frequently has a tough time building enough pressure to reach the 65psi for the pressure valve to shut it off. Fortunately, I can hear when the pump runs so I can shut it off during these times so it won't be damaged. I'm located in South Jersey, near a wetland and our water table is very very high, pratically the surface. My well is 130 ft. and the pump is sitting at 40ft.
