I have a question I do not know how to figure out.
When our well got too low to pump water the water level was @286ft below the surface.
When it began to rise I had the pump put back in the casing. It was @282ft below the surface. At this time it took 3minutes 40 seconds to get to the surface once I turned the pump on .
Now that the pump is in the well I can't measure the water level.
The water level has continued to rise.
Now it's taking 2 minutes 22 seconds to reach the surface.
Is there a way to guestimate the currant water level with those times? The drop pipe will retain the currant water level and that's that much less pipe it has to fill before it gets to the surface.
Pump is advertised as a 5 gpm if that matters.
