I have 20 year old shallow well used for irrigation with 1 Hp pump that came with the house. I replaced the pump abourt 4 years ago. has usuallly worked without any hitches. this year in the spring pump would prime but not hold it. I would have to reprime every morning. Now I can't get it to prime at all. system holds vacuum I can here it release when i break into system. I have tried flushing out the well with a hose down the well. no Joy. Is screen clogged? Do I need to sink a new well? Ideas please
