This question is actually for my mom. We both know nothing about wells and pumps.
Her well is 54 feet deep and is equipped with a submersible pump. For the past few days, the pump won't shut off it keeps running constantly when there is no water being used anywhere in the house or outside. We opened up the lid on the well outside and noticed that the water level inside the well had almost reached the top. Any idea what may be causing this to happen? We thought maybe all the rain we have had in the past month could have caused the underground spring to fill up and back up into the well causing the rising water and the pump to run constantly. But like I said we know nothing about wells and are hoping to get an idea of what this may be from the experts!
Thank you, Pamela
