Update; I installed a pressure gauge on the pump housing yesterday and it produces 75 PSI of water pressure while running. So, ether I somehow have a suction leak somewhere or the jet in the casing adapter is wrong/noisy. What would be the best way to check for suction leaks? Because I have two...

Thanks,"Texas Wellman" it finally makes sense. So, basically the air lift pumping action moves so much water it clears any fine sand built up on the screen. If that is the case, then most of the sand should settle out in my concrete cistern tank before being piped to my booster pump. And with a...

So, what could be happening down in well to produce sand only on startup? I used to have a jet pump on this well and it never pumped sandy water and if it did, it wasn't enough to notice. Now could the start of the aeration in the well be stirring the sand pack around the well screen? Because I...
