I have a well at my house that is 6' round and about 20 feet deep it has holes about 1-1/2" round evey cuple inches all the way around and all the way up and down it. Around this time of year I have to haul water from about the end of august to the first in january. The reat of the year it comes out my overflow most of the time. I have to dump about 1100 gallons a week in it since I loose some back into the ground. My pump sits about 16-18" inches off the bottom of my well. I was woundering at this time of the year while it is so low could I remove the big acces lid some how not sure my tractor will lift it. Get the step ladder out and get in there and dig maybe another 3' or maybe 6' deep I am hoping 3' in the center and have to winch bucks of dirt out and then lower a 3' x 3' concrete pipe down in it and then lower my pump down to about 12" off the bottom of the new peice. I really think that would get me low enough down in the ground to never have to haul water again. Any ideas or ever heard of anybody ever do anything like this.
