Common questions
How do I know if my well pump is failing?
Watch for low or surging pressure, a pump that short cycles or never shuts off, air or sand in the water, a breaker that trips, or a sudden jump in the electric bill.
How much does it cost to repair a well pump?
It depends on the cause. Pressure switches and capacitors are small repairs. A new submersible pump in a deep well is a much larger job. You will get a price after diagnosis and before any work.
How long do well pumps last?
Many last 8 to 15 years. Lightning, sand, and short cycling from a bad pressure tank can cut that short.
What is short cycling?
It is when the pump turns on and off every few seconds. It is usually caused by a pressure tank that has lost its air charge, and it wears out the pump.
Can lightning damage my well pump?
Yes. Lightning and power surges are among the most common causes of sudden pump, switch and control box failures in Central Florida.
What is the difference between a submersible pump and a jet pump?
A submersible pump sits down in the well and pushes water up, and it suits deeper wells. A jet pump sits above ground and pulls water up, and it suits shallow wells.
My jet pump runs but there is no water. Why?
It has most likely lost prime, often because of an air leak in the suction line or a failed foot valve or check valve.
Should I test my well water?
The Florida Department of Health recommends that private well owners test their water regularly, and after flooding. Contact the health department in Brevard County for testing options.
Do you work on irrigation wells?
Yes, including shallow irrigation wells on homes that use city water indoors.
Do you drill new wells?
No. We focus on pumps, tanks and switches for existing wells.
