4 Common Well Pump Problems

A properly functioning pump is an essential component of residential water well. Pay attention to the following signs which may reveal a problem:

High Electric Bills

Just about all of the well pump and pressure tank problems described above can reduce the efficiency of your home’s water system and raise your electric bills. If you start to see that bill creeping up month after month, you might want to consider inspecting your well pump and pressure tank or calling a professional.

Low Water Pressure

There are several reasons you may experience changes in water pressure throughout your Greater Dayton, OH home. They may not always mean your well pump is going bad, but it’s good to check with a professional to be sure. Well pumps run on electric motors, so if the motor fails, you’ll notice a difference in your water pressure.

Sclading Hot Water

If you are showering and someone flushes a toilet, causing you to react to unexpected scalding hot water, that’s most likely an issue with your pressure tank as well. This is because some homes are equipped with two- or three-handle tub and shower valves, which do not have pressure-balancing spools like most new, single-handle valves. As a result, the drop in pressure from your malfunctioning pressure tank will allow more hot water than cold water through, creating surges of scalding hot water.

Spitting Faucets

A leaking pressure tank bladder may also cause irregular air spurts in your water, or “spitting” faucets. This may occur intermittently, but if left unchecked, it could shorten the life span of your well pump.

We provide honest pricing and reliable and responsive service to ensure your well pump needs are met for your Southwest Ohio home. Learn more about the types of water well pumps we service and install:

Submersible Pumps

The most popular type of well pump is a submersible pump. Submersible pumps can be mechanical, rotary, electric, or solar-powered. Despite their type, submersible pumps operate beneath the surface of the water in your well. Submersible pumps are often designed to last many years in your well, but it’s important that you don’t forget about them and that you continue to carry out yearly inspections and maintenance.

Jet Pumps

If your well pump is located above ground or in the basement, it is most likely a jet pump. Jet pumps provide your home with well water by pulling water up from the well using large amounts of pressure. The “jet” power allows the pump to pull water from depths of up to 200 feet. Just like submersible pumps, jet pumps require yearly maintenance to ensure efficient operations.

My well system seems to be working fine. Why should I consider having it maintained?

Well systems sometimes can go extensive periods of time without seemingly any concerns. However, a system that is not regularly maintained can unknowingly endure wear and tear on the system components that ultimately cause excessive energy usage, resulting in higher electric bills. Also, the multiple mechanical components of a well system do lose their proper calibrations over time, resulting in loss of life expectancy to the well pump and or water storage tank. The two most expensive items to replace on a well pumping system.

When should I consider calling a professional for my well system?

Your water well system should be checked at least once a year and anytime you experience any of the following: unexplained higher electric bill, air spurts in the water, loss of water pressure, system is making strange noises or clicking sounds, change in odor or appearance of the water.

Water issues that may seem small and trivial could also mean just a small repair or adjustment is required. Should any of these issues go without being addressed, eventually may result in a costly repair and even worse, losing your water altogether, requiring an emergency service call.

How should property owners prepare for excavations?

We will give you specific instructions on how to prepare for the project. You will need to schedule a site inspection and understand the necessary safety measures.
