i have an older goulds shallow well pump that is in my garage and is plumbed with a new foot valve. The intake is in my pond (not clogged). The output is connected to a garden hose. I use the pump to help aerate my pond. My problem us that there is little water pressure at the hose side so the water just shoots about 4 ft out into the pond. It is primed as water is flowing with no air sputtering. Do i need pressure tank? I run the pump maybe 5hrs a day with little effect. Any advice would be appreciated.
