    Low water pressure/ sand silt in filter
    I have a problem with trying to water my lawn and flower beds... After 10-15 minutes, the pressure drops and the filter becomes clogged... I flush the filter and give the well 20 min to recover and the process repeats.. Please help... Hollie in Wisconsin.

    Sure sounds like the water table has dropped and now you're sucking mud and silt. You need a well guy out 5there. Good luck, Tom
