Low Water Pressure in your Stonebank Home?

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 out. The mechanical magic barely evokes thought. The water’s just always there.

 

So when something disrupts this stability, the shock is profound and instantaneous. Minimal water pressure in the home? Worse yet, suddenly no water in the house? Yikes. Time to freak out.

 

Maybe yes … or no.

 

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

 

Well pumps typically operate for 15 to 20 years. Their duration can be shorter or longer, based on the water being pumped and how they’re used. Their well-being often connects with condition of the pressure tank, as well – replacement of both simultaneously 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 skilled professionals will analyze your situation, and have your water up and running within hours.

 

A well pump isn’t always the source of no water in the house. Every now and then an underground electrical wire breaks – a very repairable issue. Diagnosing power connections is always the first step taken by Kelly James Service.

 

If the issue is a well pump, though … then why? These pumps quit working for myriad reasons. Age is unavoidable. Water with high iron content will significantly lessen 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.

 

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

 

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

 

Otherwise, the problem usually ties to the pressure tank. Low or fluctuating water pressure means the well pump is short-cycling. The tank can’t maintain required pressure, forcing the pump to relentlessly 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 a problem that doesn’t just solve itself, either. Ignoring the issue only makes it worse, as pricey equipment can be harmed or stop working altogether.

 

The proactive measure – whether you have minimal water pressure in a house, or none at all – is to contact Kelly James Service.
