Characteristics and Causes of Low Yield Wells Have you ever run out of water when you need it the most? You might have a low yield well. A low yield well does not consistently produce enough water to meet your daily needs. These wells typically yield less than 5 gallons per minute (GPM) and are often located in regions with less productive aquifers, like areas with glacial till or deep bedrock. Various geological factors can limit the amount of water entering the well, causing insufficient...

Connection Between Well Water and Groundwater The relationship between healthy water and groundwater is both direct and vital. Groundwater, which exists in the saturated zone of soil and rock layers under the Earth's surface, is the primary source of well water.
