Although it may not seem important, it’s critical that every homeowner has a basic understanding of how their well water pump functions. Ackerson Pump Company knows that a simple awareness of your home’s water system – the type of well pump, potential problems, and how to troubleshoot issues – will empower you to take care of problems when they arise.
There are two common types of water pumps: jet pumps and submersible pumps. Jet pumps are commonly used for wells that are no more than 25 feet deep. They are mounted above ground and use atmospheric suction to draw water from the well. Submersible pumps are used for deep private wells. Through the use of a motor and high-powered suction, they are able to carry water long distances.
Several elements can alert you to potential problems with your well pump. If you experience any of these signs, the next step would be to attempt troubleshooting the well water pump.
