We have a shallow dug well about twenty feet deep and thirty feet from the house and the jet pump is in the basement. The pump and bladder tank are on the floor of basement at the same level. New foot valve installed and holds pressure in the line between the pump and foot valve. Well guy says lots of water in well.
The problem is the pump cavitates perodically and I it takes a lot of purging to clear the air. How does air get into the sealed system and how do I correct this.
