Low Water Pressure in your Goldenthal Home?

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

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

So when something interrupts this reliability, the shock is significant and urgent. Reduced water pressure in the house? Worse yet, suddenly no water in the home? Yikes. Time to panic.

Maybe yes … or no.

If you have no water pressure in your Goldenthal house – kaput, out, dry, nothing coming out of any faucet or spigot – probably you need a new well pump. This pump, frequently 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 last 15 to 20 years. Their lifespan can be shorter or longer, depending on the water being pumped and how they’re used. Their longevity often is linked 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 Goldenthal. Their knowledgeable professionals will analyze your situation, and have your water back running within hours.

A well pump isn’t always the source of 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 it is a well pump, though … then why? These pumps stop operating for various 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 Goldenthal house is a different issue, albeit usually less serious. This condition appears 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 clogged iron filter – again, for Goldenthal 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 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 a problem that doesn’t just disappear, either. Ignoring the situation only makes it worse, as costly mechanicals can be harmed or quit working altogether.
