Ok we lost water to our house and we share a shallow well which is 500 feet from our house. We have replaced the pump in house, the foot valve, the check valve and the pressure tank also put a longer pipe on going into the well. We get water and it kicks out but as soon as we flush it drops really quickly below 20 psi and pump seems to lose its pressure and prime. We have been fighting this problem for about a month. We can't afford a plumber I'm a maintenance millwright so know what I'm doing just can't figure out what's causing this. We've lived here for 26 years and have never had this much issue. Could there be ice in the lines the temperature has beeen -10 to -20 Celsius
