When it comes to problems with your water pump system at home, diagnosing the issue can be hard to pinpoint, as some types of pumps like submersible pumps are below the ground. With limited visibility and complex components, how do you determine if your house needs a new water pump installed? At Ackerson Pump Company of Sussex County, we’re here to share the top 5 signs that homeowners may need their water pump replaced and how to go about getting a new pump installed.
Anything that puts a strain on the water pump can cause it to fail prematurely. If you suspect an issue with your home’s pump system, the first thing we recommend is noting if you’ve experienced any of these conditions in the past couple of months:
If the problems persist and you arrive to a home with no running water at all, we recommend shutting off electrical power to the pump and to the water heater in order to prevent possible additional damage.
When it comes to water pump replacements, the best course of action is to hire an expert to replace the necessary parts. A broken water supply needs to be addressed quickly and correctly the first time in order to ensure the issue doesn’t happen in the future. A professional contractor can figure out water usage at your home, address low well capacity, and ensure adequate water pressure.
