    Well water pump turns on only for 30 seconds.
    Recently we've had water pressure issues. When we turn on a faucet it will have good pressure for about 15 seconds then very low pressure. The gauge on the pump reads 60 psi. After reading some forums I saw that the pump should run longer. Could this be a reason for my low water pressure?
