My wife and I bought some property last year that has a shallow gas well on it. Long story short- Spent lots days filling out paper work to tap into it, lots of money buying the proper equipment, ran 700' of pipe from well to the house, paid a plumber to hook it all up to our new home we built there. The house is not complete yet but, it has the furnace installed and it runs about 10 to 12 hours before there is not enough pressure to the regulator at the house and trips the regulator. Overnight the pressure builds back up and the next day I reset the regulator and same thing happens. I had the gas company out to look at it, the plumber that hooked it up, and they say that the well is just not producing enough and that they have never seen this happen before. Has anyone ever had this happen or have any experience with this. I was wondering if a holding tank of some sorts with check valve might help? Just FYI, everything has been double checked for leaks, pressure tested, and regulators are working as they should. When this was first hooked up it did run for several days before it started acting up. I asked the gas company if there is anything I do and was told no. Any advice would be appreciated.
