Well Data: Yermo, California

County
Based on California DWR well completion reports. Yermo's average well depth is 135 feet shallower than the San Bernardino County average of 380 feet.
With 451 wells on record, Yermo has a moderate well infrastructure. The wide depth range of 3 to 800 feet reflects the varied terrain and geology across Yermo's landscape. Shallower wells typically tap into alluvial aquifers near drainages, while deeper wells penetrate Mojave Desert alluvial basins and Transverse Ranges crystalline rock to reach more reliable water sources.
At an average depth of 245 feet, agricultural wells in Yermo require high-capacity pumps sized for significant lift — typically 1 to 5 HP depending on flow rate and total dynamic head. See detailed well depth data for Yermo →
Agricultural Water Needs in Yermo
Yermo's San Bernardino County location means desert conditions where efficient water use is critical — drip irrigation and scheduled pumping help maximize every gallon. Agricultural wells here must be sized for sustained high-volume pumping, often 15-50 GPM from alluvial or weathered rock aquifers.
Common agricultural well setups in Yermo include variable frequency drives (VFDs) to match pump output to demand, storage tanks for buffer capacity, and booster systems for pressurized irrigation lines. We size every agricultural pump to the well's tested yield — oversizing wastes energy and can damage the well by drawing the water level down too fast.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much water does an agricultural well produce?
Agricultural wells in Southern California typically produce 20-100+ GPM depending on the aquifer. Irrigation needs vary widely — a small orchard may need 15-20 GPM while larger operations require 50-100+ GPM.
What type of pump is best for agricultural wells?
For high-volume agricultural wells, we typically install large-diameter submersible pumps (7.5-25+ HP) from Franklin Electric or Grundfos. Solar-powered pump systems are increasingly popular for remote ranch locations.
How deep are agricultural wells in Southern California?
Agricultural wells in our service area range from 200 to 1,000+ feet. Desert and inland valley locations often require deeper wells (400-800 ft), while coastal and foothill areas may produce at 200-400 feet.
