    Water Drained From Well
    I left the water on a hose all night outside. It drained the well completely. What are the problems associated with doing this? I heard that if drained completely one of the walls in the well could collapse? Is this true? If this happened what are the fixes and costs associated?

    If this hasn't happened yet why sweat it? Why not simply wait until the well replenishes itself. Good luck, Tom
