Common Home Well Pump Issues

You’re not alone in needing to find a plumber who provides residential well pump service. Many homeowners can struggle with a broad range of common home well pump issues, including the following:

Sediment in the Tank

If you’ve noticed that your well pump is pumping sediment into your tank, it’s time to take action. Mr. Rooter Plumbing can get to the root of the cause, which can often be:

• The pump is too large for your well
• The pump is too low
• The pump has a faulty well screen

Pumping Air

Have you noticed that your water is sputtering when you turn on your faucets? Your well pump may be struggling to draw in enough water for its flow rate. When this happens, air can mix with the water and cause spluttering.

Sometimes, spluttering water can also indicate that your pump needs to be re-primed. Talk to our service professionals about providing this service.

Worn-Out Components

Well pumps, their parts, and even well pipes don’t always last forever. Worn-out components may spell the end of your well pump’s service life. When this happens, you may start to notice low water pressure. Talk to Mr. Rooter Plumbing about home well pump repair. We may recommend repairs or replacement based on your well pump’s condition and age.

A Failing Pressure Switch

If you’re experiencing abnormal water pressure in your home’s water well pump, ask your local plumbing service provider about a bad pressure switch. A failing switch can struggle to activate your well pump to ensure consistent water flow. Your chosen plumber can recommend replacing the switch, the tank, or the entire well pump.
