Low Water Pressure in your Stonebank House?

No Water? Might Require a New Well Pump … Or Something Else

We’re used to having water at the ready. Just turn on the faucet, or shower, or hose, and it spills forth. The mechanical part barely evokes thought. The water’s just dependably there.

 

So when something interrupts this stability, the shock is undeniable and instantaneous. Minimal water pressure in the home? Worse yet, unexpectedly no water in the house? Yikes. Time to worry.

 

Maybe yes … or no.

 

If you have no water pressure in your Stonebank home – kaput, out, dry, nothing coming from any faucet or spigot – very likely you require a new well pump. This pump, regularly called a water pump, pushes water from the ground into your water system’s pressure tank. It waits for use in a sink, shower or toilet.

 

Well pumps typically work for 15 to 20 years. Their duration can be shorter or longer, depending on the water being pumped and how they’re used. Their longevity often connects with condition of the pressure tank, as well – replacement of both at the same time is a regular occurrence.

 

What is the reason for no water pressure in the house? The first step is to call Kelly James Service, the well pump and water solutions provider in Stonebank. Their experienced team will troubleshoot your situation, and have your water running again within hours.

 

A well pump isn’t always the culprit of no water in the house. Periodically an underground electrical wire breaks – a very repairable issue. Diagnosing power connections is always the first step undertaken by Kelly James Service.

 

If the issue is a well pump, though … then why? These pumps wear out for various reasons. Age is inevitable. Water with high iron content will significantly reduce pump life.

 

So will running water for hours on end, such as filling a pool or watering grass. These activities can lower the underground water table which, if it drops too far, can cause the water-cooled pump to overheat.

 

Low water pressure in a Stonebank home is a different situation, albeit usually less serious. This condition appears in toilets filling slowly, or weak water output from faucets or showers. Sometimes water spits out irregularly, indicating air in the line.

 

The problem might be a clogged iron filter – again, for Stonebank homes with high iron content in water.

 

Otherwise, the problem usually links to the pressure tank. Minimal or fluctuating water pressure indicates the well pump is short-cycling. The tank can’t sustain enough pressure, forcing the pump to consistently turn on and off. Obviously, this takes a toll on the pump’s well-being.

 

Frankly, minimal water pressure in a home is a headache. It’s an issue that doesn’t just disappear, either. Ignoring the situation only makes it worse, as expensive infrastructure can be harmed or stop working altogether.
