Common Pump Issues in Bonsall
Wells in Bonsall typically range from 200-400ft with geology consisting of weathered granite and gabbroic rock. This means pumps here face unique challenges:
- Pump depth settings: Most Bonsall wells require pump settings between 200 and 400ft, which means your pump is working hard to lift water from deep underground.
- Typical yields: Bonsall wells produce 5-15 GPM, which affects pump sizing and horsepower requirements.
- Local water quality: moderate hardness, occasional boron — these contaminants can cause premature pump wear and motor failure.
