 I have an 85 foot deep well. It has an above-ground jet pump. Lately, when using a lot of water - say to fill 4 5-gal buckets, or taking a shower, the flow will stop, and after about 5-10 seconds, the pump will kick in (I can hear it) and we have full pressure immediately. There is a relatively new bladder-type pressure tank. What is wrong?
