Low Water Pressure in your Vernon House?

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

We’re used to having water at the ready. Just start the faucet, or shower, or hose, and it pours forth. The mechanical part barely registers. The water’s just always there.

 

So when something disrupts this continuity, the shock is significant and urgent. Diminished water pressure in the house? Worse yet, unexpectedly no water in the home? Yikes. Time to panic.

 

Maybe yes … or no.

 

If you have no water pressure in your Vernon house – kaput, out, dry, nothing coming from any faucet or spigot – probably you need a new well pump. This pump, occasionally called a water pump, pushes water from the ground into your water system’s pressure tank. It awaits use in a sink, shower or toilet.

 

Well pumps on average operate for 15 to 20 years. Their duration can be shorter or longer, depending on the water being pumped and how they’re used. Their health often ties in 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 Vernon. Their skilled professionals will troubleshoot your scenario, and have your water running again within hours.

 

A well pump isn’t always the reason behind no water in the house. Periodically an underground electrical wire breaks – a very repairable issue. Checking power connections is always the initial step taken by Kelly James Service.

 

If it is a well pump, though … then why? These pumps break down for various reasons. Age is inevitable. 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 pursuits can lower the underground water table which, if it plummets too far, can cause the water-cooled pump to overheat.

 

Low water pressure in a Vernon home is a different scenario, albeit usually less serious. This condition shows up in toilets filling slowly, or weak water volume from faucets or showers. Sometimes water spits out irregularly, indicating air in the line.

 

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

 

Otherwise, the problem usually connects to the pressure tank. Reduced or fluctuating water pressure means the well pump is short-cycling. The tank can’t maintain required pressure, forcing the pump to consistently turn on and off. Obviously, this takes a toll on the pump’s well-being.

 

Frankly, reduced 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 costly mechanicals can be harmed or break down entirely.
