Hello, I have a residence with a deep water well. This well is exactly
200' deep and water is at around the 175' level. The pump is located about 4' off of the bottom with approximately 20' of water above it. The well is 12" inside diameter steel cased. I checked with the county and they do not have any record of the well so it is probably 40 years old or more. This well produces anywhere from 1 gpm to 7 gpm and the rate does not seem to matter if we are having a wet or dry season. I am curious if there is any consensus from people on this newsgroup if I should try to improve this well or have another one put in. Currently, the production is adequate, but just barely. The well is located in the hills in central California. Thanks for suggestions.- posted
