I contacted a well company and they suggested that I open/create a
hole in the top of the well line and drop a weighted line to see how
deep. He believed that since this was a jet pump, it's likely a deep
well. I tend to lean this way as well as there is no rust and shallow
wells in Florida typically produce rust. He said if the well was less
than 15' I could use a centrifical pump. Other than that, the jet pump
is producing about what would be expected in this area for a jet pump.
He mentioned something about a switch to increase PSI by about 10.
