Low Water Pressure in your East Waupun House?

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

We’re acclimated to having water instantly available. Just start the faucet, or shower, or hose, and it comes out. The mechanical part barely registers. The water’s just unfailingly there.

 

So when something interrupts this continuity, the shock is serious and urgent. Low 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 East Waupun home – kaput, out, dry, nothing coming out of any faucet or spigot – probably you require a new well pump. This pump, occasionally 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 lifespan can be shorter or longer, depending on the water being circulated and how they’re used. Their longevity 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 East Waupun. Their skilled team will troubleshoot your situation, and have your water running again within hours.

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

Reduced water pressure in a East Waupun home is a different problem, albeit usually less serious. This condition shows up 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 plugged iron filter – again, for East Waupun homes with high iron content in water.

 

Otherwise, the problem usually links to the pressure tank. Reduced or fluctuating water pressure indicates the well pump is short-cycling. The tank can’t maintain sufficient pressure, forcing the pump to constantly turn on and off. Obviously, this takes a toll on the pump’s health.

 

Frankly, low water pressure in a home is a headache. It’s a problem that doesn’t just fix itself, either. Ignoring the problem only makes it worse, as costly mechanicals can be damaged or break down entirely.

 

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