Hi! I have a shallow well. We are in a drought. Water pressure is low throughout the house and falling, despite conserving water. I thought the problem was drought-related. But yesterday, I broke my self-imposed water restrictions and used the outside hose to water my thirsty shrubs. I was surprised to find that the pressure outside is just fine! What might be going on here?
Note: Pressure has been low for two weeks. A few days ago, I could hear a small amount of air sputtering into the toilet tank.
Also... about one minute into a shower, pressure increases Every time like clockwork, then fails after about 30 seconds. The pipes "sing" during the increase in pressure.
Thank you for your time.
