My well is 147' deep, and the pump sits at 100'. I utilize a Mascontrol pump controller with the pump. We have had years of trouble free service with this setup. Well supplies all outside water, plus 10 irrigation zones zoned at 18GPM per zone. Pump broke lose from well head and fell to bottom of the well. I was able to retrieve pump, pipe, and wire. The pump was a Red Jacket 1HP, 2 wire pump, installed 1991. Considering the age, I replaced with a Sta Rite of the same specifications. Reinstalled new pump exactly as old. However, only getting approximately 1/3 of previous water, if that. Reading 230V coming in, and 230V going to the pump. Any ideas? The well can run 24 hours, and never have an issue with water.
