Hello, I'm hoping you figure out what is wrong, because I've tried everything I can think of to get my well working.
The well is only used for lawn watering and topping off an inground pool in the late spring. After topping it off (about 3k gallons) a few days before, I've had no luck getting any water to draw up. I ran a pipesnake down the see a) how deep the well was (snake went down 20 feet) and b) see if there was water in the pipes (water is 10 ft below surface).
I replaced the well pump after filling the pool since the old one's pressure tank bladder was shot.
It was dry for the weeks before and after filling the pool, but it rained all last week.
Any thoughts? I would really prefer to get the well working again so that I don't need to draw city water to water the lawn.
