Now I run off city water, so I have no idea how that impacts the temp vs a very deep well, but I would think the deeper you go the warmer it is???

Any deep well owners that can tell us what your cold water temp is?

Im a very long way from our treatment plant and our water can be pretty cold when it gets to me,,,
You wouldn't go deep enough to change the temp.
A shallow well (dug well) will actually have a higher temperature as it will approach ambient if not insulated.
