Low Water Pressure in your Nabob House?

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

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

So when something disrupts this stability, the shock is undeniable and urgent. Minimal water pressure in the home? Worse yet, unexpectedly no water in the house? Yikes. Time to panic.

Maybe yes … or no.

If you have no water pressure in your Nabob house – kaput, out, dry, nothing coming from any faucet or spigot – in all likelihood you require a new well pump. This pump, occasionally called a water pump, drives 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 lifespan can be shorter or longer, depending 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 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 Nabob. Their skilled professionals will diagnose your situation, and have your water running again within hours.

A well pump isn’t always the source of no water in the house. Periodically an underground electrical wire breaks – a very repairable 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 working for different reasons. Age is unavoidable. Water with high iron content will significantly reduce pump life.

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

Low water pressure in a Nabob house 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 clogged iron filter – again, for Nabob 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 maintain enough 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 an issue that doesn’t just disappear, either. Ignoring the problem only makes it worse, as costly infrastructure can be damaged or break down entirely.
