QuestionDear Matt, I recently drilled my own well with a small rig. I drilled to 24 feet and had water at 13 feet down. I installed a rts7 water ace 3/4 hp pump with a hose attached and everything went beautifully until I hooked it to a sprinkler. The hose then started jerking around so I tried other sprinklers and had the same problem. Could you offer any advice? I thank you very much for any help.

AnswerFrank,
I need a little more info if possible. What size well did you put down? Have you done a flow test? ___GPM at ___PSI? What type of sprinkler were you trying to run?
It sounds as if your over drawing the well or you are getting air in the suction of the pump. with more info, I might be able to help further.
