Common Pump Issues in Boulevard
Wells in Boulevard typically range from 300-500ft with geology consisting of granite and metamorphic rock. This means pumps here face unique challenges:
- Pump depth settings: Most Boulevard wells require pump settings between 300 and 500ft, which means your pump is working hard to lift water from deep underground.
- Typical yields: Boulevard wells produce 3-10 GPM, which affects pump sizing and horsepower requirements.
- Local water quality: low yields common, iron, moderate hardness — these contaminants can cause premature pump wear and motor failure.
