How do I increase water pressure
I'm buying this Farm that has county water that supplies the house, but the outside has a well. I know nothing about wells and tanks. This is my first home with a well. I use the well to water my Animals/garden.I don't know how deep the well is, The tank is a Well-X-Trol by Amtrol, Model #22211804, WX-202, and the pump is Submersable , There are 4 wires going in the well,(sorry but that's all I know about it). I have read that it's should have a pop off valve and a shut off with a gauge, it has nothing but 1" pipes that go from the well and out to the hydrant. When I first started there was very little water coming out of the Hydrant witch is about 3 feet from the well. I turned the nut on the Pressure valve and I have more water but no pressure. You could put your finger over the end of a hose and stop the water with no effert.The tank has a fitting in the top for a air gauge, I put a air gauge on it and it read 24psi. The distance that I would have to run a hose would be about 100 feet. Please help me.

My question is similar to others already posted, but I need some clarification. The water pressure in my house is not what it should be. It takes almost 15 minutes to fill my tub, and when I tested how many gallons jugs I could fill in one minute with a water hose, I only got 2 and a half jugs...
I have a 260 foot deep well with a 5 hsp submersible pump and a 5 inch main. I only use the well for the house and to fill a stock tank. I currently have a small water tank (35-40 gal) and a 20-40 psi pressure switch. I am getting ready to change it out to a 30-50psi since the points are shot...
The deep water well that supplies our home also supplies another small house on the property that my father lives in. Water supply has never been an issue as it is a great well. The well feeds a small supply tank with switch, then there is two other supply tanks that are daisy chained together...
