    tfrench, more info is needed, what kind of pump, how deep the well, what type of pipe is used. Plenty of good help here.

    Is there pressure at the pump, how many lbs pressure does it provide.
    At some point there is really no other choice than changing lines.
    When I bought my home here in GA, it is 40 or less years old the pressure was almost none in the back of home. So I merely pulled the old pipes and replaced them. My son and I did it in one day.
