I have a well 30'deep it has water but runs out shortly. I installed PVC inside the 2" galvenized pipe think I could be pumping air. That didn't work I still run out of water. It acts like the water doesn't flow into the pump fast enough. This well is 35 years old. It's clear to the bottom. When I drop a 3/4 " PVC pipe down it shows several feet of water in it. Is there any thing I can do with this well? should I just dril a new one:?
