Hello All
I have a probably stupid question to the experts !

I have a standpoint well - it works fine but gives only 4GPM.
I have an option to redo it and get maybe 6GPM.

The question(s) are
1. May I keep the current one and add a second one with a second pump and join them together in a water tank? (how far from each other should they be)
2. (another stupid one) May I just put 2 drivepoints (pipe with holes) one after another to increase square-footage of a surface I can grab some water from ? ( just make a new well but improved - sort of)
3. May I have a second well and try to send some water under some pressure into the first one to unclog it? (does it worth it)

Sorry if the question make no sense.

Thank you !
