What is the function of foot valve in the pump?

A foot valve, in relation to a water well, is a check valve at he bottom of a well to keep the water from running back into the well from the pump when the pump is not running. If the check valve does not hold the water the pump will lose it's prime and will not pump water.

Why is there no water coming from the well?

Assuming that the pump and the pipes are O.K.then your water level has probably dropped.ANS 2 - It is possible, but unlikely for the well level to drop unless many new people or businesses are sucking from the aquifer you are on. Many things can go wrong with pumps and well pressure tanks. If you have a jet pump (motor and pump on surface) these are very susceptible to air leaks in the pipes to well. Check this. If you have a submersible pump the control box can develop problems. -If you have an old pressure tank it can get 'waterlogged'. If you are unfamiliar with any of this hire a well technician or a local well company to check it out.


Is 250 considered a deep well or shallow well?

Anything over 80 feet is considered a deep well. A jet pump can pump up from 80 feet, more than that needs a submersible pump.


What is causing low water pressure in house and pump to constantly buzz in a deep well?

I do not know your situation but a good guess is that your well pump is always on and is not getting enough pressure to shut off the pressure switch. So I would shut off the power to your well pump and see if the buzzing stops and if it does then I would replace your well pump. If the buzzing don't stop with pump shut off then it could still be your well pump check valve slowly leaking threw but I think its your pump because its not pumping enough to shut off with or with out a bad check valve.

What is a Myers Ejecto well pump?

It is what is commonly called a "Jet Pump". This is a motor connected to a pump chamber that has 2 pipes going down the well and sucks water through an 'ejector' that increases flow and brings water to the surface. This pump sits at or near the well head. - The other basic type of well pump is a "Submersible" pump. These sit down the well, deep in water and pump straight to the surface through a series of impellers.
