in the last few weeks the pressure drops in the house after the water pressure tank empties. Have a 1 hp pump, think red lion brand. Well drilled in 1995 ish. Think 300 ft. Pump replaced in 2001 when we bought the house. Iron water. Unsure of gpm refill on well production. Has run dry a couple of times, I.e. Pressure washing the house, etc. diaphram type tank , aqua air, guess about 35 to 40 gallon sized.
Water pressure fine at first then slows somewhat after a few minutes, unless multiple faucets or toilets used, becomes slow trickle.
Pressure switch 30/50, pressure tank not waterlogged. 6 inch pipe out of ground at wellhead.
QD control box in well house have replaced it a couple of times over the years.
Suspect pump starting to die.
Any ideas?
Thanks
