Encountering problems with your well pump system can be highly aggravating. Various situations may arise, including:
No Water: One of the most prevalent problems is experiencing no water flow. Several factors can contribute to this issue, such as excessive water usage, a continuously running toilet due to a stuck handle, mechanical failures, aging equipment, power surges, lightning strikes, inadequate water production from the well, or a complete absence of water. Many well owners have found great satisfaction in utilizing constant pressure pump systems.
These advanced systems offer numerous advantages, including ample water pressure for simultaneous use of multiple fixtures, resulting in water and electricity conservation. Over the years, we have successfully assisted numerous well owners in resolving plumbing issues related to their well pump systems.
No Water Pressure or Insufficient Water Pressure: Insufficient water pressure or low water pressure can arise from various sources, including natural well conditions or issues within your well water pump system. These issues may include clogged filters that impede water flow, mineral buildup in plumbing pipes, the age of the well pump system, and leaks either underground or within the well. By installing a constant pressure pump system, you can enjoy improved water pressure and the ability to use multiple fixtures simultaneously. For instance, you can take a shower while running the dishwasher without any loss of pressure, thereby conserving water and electricity. Our team has successfully resolved numerous water pressure problems.
Sudden Increase in Water Pressure: An abrupt rise in water pressure typically stems from issues with the water storage tank. Recharging or replacing the water storage tank may be necessary to address this problem. The lifespan of a well pump is influenced by the condition of your water storage tank.
UNDERGROUND LEAK IN WELL WATER SYSTEM
To prevent freezing, underground well water lines should be buried beneath the frost line. When a leak occurs in one of these lines, it can lead to decreased water pressure and sometimes result in visible discoloration of the water. Additionally, you may notice a wet area in your yard.
BOOSTER PUMP FOR MUNICIPAL AND WELL PUMP SYSTEMS
Booster pumps are specifically designed to deliver increased pressure to your plumbing fixtures while conserving water. These versatile pumps can be utilized for both municipal “public” water sources and private well pump systems. If you are facing issues with low water pressure, there is an affordable solution available.
ADDRESSING LOW WATER PRESSURE IN MUNICIPAL OR PUBLIC WATER SYSTEMS
Both residential and commercial buildings that rely on municipal water sources may encounter low water pressure problems. In such cases, the underlying cause of low water pressure is often attributed to issues within the plumbing pipes. One potential culprit is a clogged plumbing reducer valve, while another possibility is the need for servicing or repair of the water treatment equipment. Our team has successfully resolved numerous low water pressure issues associated with municipal or public water sources. Feel free to contact us and inquire about how we can assist you!
MUNICIPAL “PUBLIC” WATER SERVICE
A water service refers to an underground pipe that runs from a home or building to a meter, located below the frost line. If you encounter issues with your water service, you might experience symptoms such as an unusually high water bill or the presence of a wet spot in your yard. To address a leak and have your water line repaired or replaced, it is essential to engage the services of a licensed plumbing company, as they are required to obtain a permit for the necessary work.
WATER SOFTENERS
Water softeners are designed to eliminate calcite deposits and certain iron impurities from water. Conducting water testing allows for an assessment of water quality. If necessary, a customized water softener system is created and sized to effectively remove calcium deposits and iron. Hard water tends to leave behind calcium deposits in showers, dishwashers, coffee pots, and other areas. Homeowners and food service businesses have long relied on water softeners to ensure optimal water quality for their residences and establishments. Water softeners are suitable for use with both municipal and private well water sources.

SUMP PUMPS
Sump pumps are specifically designed to remove water that accumulates in the sump basin due to ground seepage. The number of sump pumps and basins required depends on the volume of water entering the basin. When selecting a sump pump, it’s crucial to consider its quality, as it determines both reliability and the frequency of replacement. Investing in a high-quality sump pump offers the advantage of keeping your basement dry. On average, sump pumps are typically replaced every ten years to ensure optimal performance.
BATTERY BACKUP SUMP PUMP
One of the main advantages of a Battery Backup Sump Pump is the peace of mind it provides during power outages. When the main power source fails, the backup sump pump kicks in to ensure continuous operation. These pumps typically rely on a 12-volt marine battery and come equipped with a low battery alarm feature. Regular inspection of the battery is essential to ensure it is in good condition and consistently charged for optimal performance.
