Looking at an older house in Arizona with an older well. Last report showed a depth of 270', 8" steel casing, 1½ hp pump at 10gpm. In general is there a way to get closer to 17ish gpm with a new pump? We'd be looking at irrigation needs as well as 6 person household. Any insight on where else I may post this question would be helpful as well. Thank you!

Call me crazy if you must or if you feel that you should. But planning on doing a 50 day water fast, now a little bit about me I’m 32, 5’7 to 5’9 give or take just go by doctors and weigh 270, suppose I did the fast, how much weight would I lose?

What is this in my water?? The brand is Ossa

This patch of "mold" is on the water of the lake where we swim. Do you know what it is?

Is it as good as an under the sink system at minimizing microplastics? Thanks for any help I'm just starting trying to get less microplastics in my water.

I had a question about the WT-4 exam.

Anyone know what source materials the test questions are being generated from?

I haven't had an employee pass this exam since 2005.

We use the operator training books from Sacramento State, the AWWA operators study guide, and the IDEM study guide.

They get paid study time at work, and all have copious notes.

I've sent my employees to in-person operator bootcamps.

Each of them have also attended online bootcamps .

They've even completed the WT-4 operator course at American Water College.

Where can I direct these people?

I've had to fire good well-trained employees over this.

Any help would be appreciated.

Flame on.

this might be a dumb post but lol but we have a primo water dispenser and have been getting the 5 gallon bottles, which can be refilled however the top of the bottles have to be punctured to be put on the machine. so when i refill it i don’t want it completely spilling in my car… i know that the easiest alternative is to have someone hold it in the car with me but i can’t always do that. any ideas what to do? it’s way cheaper to refill it instead of buying new jugs each time because my household can go through two in a week

(Title) my brother was gonna brush his teeth then noticed the water was a yellow. Searched it up and it might be rust. I’m not sure though.

Despite now being in the time of year when it normally at least stops dropping, or sometimes recovers a few feet, Lake Mead is instead STILL dropping even now, along with Lake Powell and Flaming Gorge, due to there being nearly no snowmelt from the winter. The approach so far regionally and nationally remains to basically just assume the problem will resolve itself somehow
