OK here is another test I did. I have a Wayne portable pump. It is self priming, and hose bibs for the inlet and outlet. I stuck a 10 foot house down the well and sucked all the water out. The water did not return to it's steady state level until about 3-4 minutes later. Does this imply the screen is clogged , or there is a problem with the well? It seems there should be a steady supply of water if I'm sucking it out with my portable pump.
