In this condensed version, the 90-minute introduction to well systems covers various types of wells, including hand-dug and drilled/bored, such as artesian. Pumps, like jet and submersible, are discussed with their efficiency and potential issues, alongside pressure tanks and switches, emphasizing proper sizing and evaluation. Aquifers are explained, focusing on confined and unconfined types, particularly in Maryland. Well yields, measured for water volume and reserve, are categorized into modified and 3-hour tests, with specific considerations for different locations like Baltimore County. Additionally, it touches on pump tests, functional hose bibs, poor performing wells, storage tanks, hydrofracturing, and the option of drilling a new well.
