Low Water Pressure in your East Waupun House?

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

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

 

So when something interrupts this reliability, the shock is serious and instantaneous. Decreased water pressure in the house? Worse yet, suddenly no water in the home? Yikes. Time to worry.

 

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 – very likely you require a new well pump. This pump, often called a water pump, moves water from the ground into your water system’s pressure tank. It awaits use in a sink, shower or toilet.

 

Well pumps typically last 15 to 20 years. Their duration can be shorter or longer, based on the water being circulated and how they’re used. Their health often ties in with condition of the pressure tank, as well – replacement of both simultaneously is not uncommon.

 

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 experienced professionals will diagnose your scenario, 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. Testing power connections is always the initial step undertaken by Kelly James Service.

 

If it is a well pump, though … then why? These pumps stop operating for numerous reasons. Age is inevitable. Water with high iron content will significantly reduce pump life.

 

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

 

Minimal water pressure in a East Waupun home is a different scenario, 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 could be a plugged iron filter – again, for East Waupun homes with high iron content in water.

 

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

 

Frankly, reduced water pressure in a home is a headache. It’s a problem that doesn’t just disappear, either. Ignoring the issue only makes it worse, as expensive mechanicals can be damaged or quit working altogether.

 

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