Is It Time To Get a Well Pump Replacement?
For a consistent, steady source of freshwater, your well-pump has to function at all times. However, like most equipment, well pumps have a time limit.
When this time comes, your well-pump will start malfunctioning, and it may call for a replacement. So, how do you know it is time for a water well pump replacement?
Key Indicators of Well Pump Damage
- Your well water is dirty
If the water coming from your well has dirt or sediment residue, the water may have been impacted by surface water. When the pump malfunctions, it fails to prevent surface water from mingling with well water. In this case, a new pump installation is the best solution. - Decrease In water pressure
If the pump begins to fail, you may notice it cannot draw as much water as it used to. Low pressure may also indicate a hole in the pressure tank. Call in a technician to diagnose the issue. - You have no water
An obvious indication of well-pump failure is no water coming out when you turn on your faucets, toilet, or shower. Reset the circuit breaker first, but if it does not fix the issue, call professionals for repair or replacement. - Your pump is running constantly
If your pump constantly runs, the problem may be a leak somewhere or a problem with your pressure tank. A pump that does not shut off increases wear and tear and will likely soon shut down completely.
