Abstract: A system and method for operating a low-yield well. The method starts with a pressure transducer telling a control box that a storage tank is low on water. The controller then activates the well pump, the water then flows up a pipe past a pressure transducer showing the back pressure, through a regulator and into the storage tank. The controller is constantly monitoring the tank level and the back-pressure level to indicate when to turn off the well to either stop from over filling the storage tank, or over pumping the well. The controller makes adjustments dependent on the back pressure (which indicates the level of water left in the well) and determines how long to withdraw water and how long to wait until the water can be withdrawn again. The system prevents pumping the well dry, and keeps the pump and well in good operating condition.
