>How old is it
Old. Early 90s, give or take.
>how deep
75-85' or so. Well below the water table, and I'm surrounded by decent sized lakes.
>construction
???
>is the well screen clogged
No idea. I don't even know how to check. I assume I'd have to call someone?
>does it have a gravel pack
No idea.
>can you run the pump and discharge the water at the well head to see if the well is producing suffiicient volumme/rate - has it decreased over time
Never tried. Volume/flow is unchanged in the 8yrs I've been here.
>Roots in the line between the well and house
That's a possibility, but I don't see that causing an intermittent failure like this.
>When is the last time you had the water quality checked
Not once the entire time I've lived here. (Since '17.)
>Is the groundwater level in you area dropping
It varies year to year. I've seen the lake way lower than it is now. When the snow/ice melted it was almost over my seawall. (mspaint map related. not posting a picture due to autists.)
>Bad electrical connection.
That's the assumption I'm running with now. I'm going to make a new cord for it tomorrow at work to go from the junction box to the switch just to make sure. Old one's kind of ratty, but it Ohms out.
