Frequently Asked Questions About Well Pumps
We have dedicated years to providing top-rated well pump services in the Northern Virginia area, so we often encounter the same questions from homeowners, time and time again. We’ve put together some of the common questions we receive along with answers from our well pump experts.
Why is my well pump short-cycling?
The most common thing we see as a cause for well pump short-cycling is loss of air in the water pressure tank. Some other causes could be:
- Loss of air charge in water tank
- Problems with the water pump pressure control switch
- Faulty water pump wiring
- Blocked water supply piping
- Clogged water filter
- Overcharged water tank air
- Damaged water tank bladder
- Water tank leaks
- Leaks in well pipe
While it may be difficult for a typical homeowner to discern the exact cause of their pump’s short-cycling, the qualified team at Len The Plumber can diagnose the issue quickly and provide the precise repairs and services you need.
Why is my water pressure so low?
Low water pressure is certainly a frustrating issue, especially when it comes to showering. There are a number of things that can cause low water pressure, from clogged water filters to flow restrictors. Some common causes of low water pressure include:
- Debris and mineral buildup in pipes
- Corrosion buildup in pipes
- Plumbing leaks
- Problems with your city’s water supply
Our water pressure experts can get to the bottom of your low-pressure problem fast and provide comprehensive, long-term solutions – guaranteed!
How can I fix low water pressure from a well?
If your home uses a well system, chances are you have low water pressure as well. Fortunately, this doesn’t have to be the case! There are a few ways to fix low water pressure when you have a well system, including:
- Servicing your pressure tank
- Having your pipes checked
- Installing a constant pressure system
The team at Len The Plumber has the industry know-how to get you the water pressure you need, whether you’re on city water or well water.
If you’re struggling with low water pressure from your well system, just give our friendly team a call at (800) 950-4619(800) 950-4619 or schedule your water pressure services online!
How long does a well pump last?
Typically, your well pump will last anywhere from 8 to 10 years. If your home has low or moderate water use, your well pump could last upwards of 15 years. Professional installation of a correctly sized well pump also plays a role in prolonging the service life of your home’s well pump.
Do I need a pressure system for my well?
If you experience frequent pressure fluctuation from your well pump, you could benefit from constant pressure system installation. This will allow the motor speed on your well pump to change in order to maintain a constant pressure. The results are consistent water pressure, reduced stress on your pump, and savings on your energy bill, as your system will adjust accordingly to meet your water pressure demands. If you’d like to discuss constant pressure system installation for your home, contact Len The Plumber today!
Why won’t my well pump turn off?
Your home’s well pump is designed to turn off when it reaches a certain pressure. If you have a significant leak within your well piping, the water pressure is ultimately lowered within your system. If the pressure is too low, your pump will continue running as it tries to reach the desired pressure. Our team can quickly and effectively locate and stop your leak, if this is the case.
Why is no water flowing from my well?
While you will most likely need assistance from your local plumber for this one, there are steps you can take to try and remedy the problem on your own. First, check your electrical panel to ensure that the circuit for your well pump is switched on. If it’s in the “off” position, flip it to “on” and see if that solves the problem. The next thing to check is your pressure tank. Look at the pressure gauge to see if the reading is above 20 psi. The necessary pressure will vary depending on your pressure tank, but if your tank is showing pressure, then your issue is likely within your home and not a problem with the well pump or well. If you can’t diagnose the problem on your own, don’t despair! Contact Len The Plumber and we’ll provide prompt repairs to get your water flowing again!
