Low Water Pressure in your Bayside Home?

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

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

So when something interrupts this stability, the shock is profound and instantaneous. Diminished water pressure in the house? Worse yet, suddenly no water in the house? Yikes. Time to worry.

Maybe yes … or no.

If you have no water pressure in your Bayside home – kaput, out, dry, nothing coming from any faucet or spigot – probably you require a new well pump. This pump, frequently 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 usually last 15 to 20 years. Their lives can be shorter or longer, based on the water being pumped and how they’re used. Their well-being often connects with condition of the pressure tank, as well – replacement of both at the same time is not uncommon.

What is the cause of no water pressure in the house? The first step is to call Kelly James Service, the well pump and water solutions provider in Bayside. Their knowledgeable professionals will analyze your scenario, and have your water restored within hours.

A well pump isn’t always the culprit of no water in the house. Occasionally an underground electrical wire breaks – a very fixable issue. Diagnosing power connections is always the first step undertaken by Kelly James Service.

If it is a well pump, though … then why? These pumps quit working for various reasons. Age is inevitable. Water with high iron content will significantly shorten pump life.

So will running water for hours at a time, 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.

Low water pressure in a Bayside house is a different problem, albeit usually less serious. This condition manifests itself 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 plugged iron filter – again, for Bayside homes with high iron content in water.

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

Frankly, minimal water pressure in a home is a headache. It’s an issue that doesn’t just solve itself, either. Ignoring the problem only makes it worse, as costly equipment can be damaged or stop working altogether.
