Well water pressure ?
I just moved into new home that has well water which uses a pump to deliver the water to the house. The house is only 14 yrs old.
I've noticed that the water pressure is no where that I had on city water in old house. Is there anything I can do to increase the water pressure? Thanks ! |
Size of water lines
What size water lines do you have? 3/8 inch? 1/2 inch?
Our house was a trailer and the water lines are 3/8 inch. Water pressure is quite low. Short of tearing out walks and snaking pex around, we put up with it. When we go away and take a shower at a motel or a house on city water, we think we died and went to heaven. Also what size pump? Take a five gallon water can and see how long it takes to fill it. Number of minutes to fill the 5 gallon can divided by 5 gives the gallon per minute flow rate. (Gpm) Good luck Dave |
Get the system inspected, sounds like the tank diaphragm may be busted which will burn out your pump.
