If you experience problems with your well there are several things that you can do to try to fix your well.

1. Check the breakers. Make sure that the breakers are on and not tripped.
2. Check the pressure switch (pictured to right).   Make sure that the points are closed and that there are no ants in the contacts. You can clean the contacts with an emery board or sand paper. Make sure that you turn off the power to the switch before cleaning. Mothballs will help to keep ants out of the pressure switch.  Note: if you have a constant pressure system, you will not have a pressure switch.
3. Check the overloads on the control box. If you have a box that looks like the one on the right, there are either one or two red reset buttons on the bottom. You have to push hard (10 pounds of pressure) to make them reset. If they were tripped, you will hear a definite “click” sound. Make sure and reset both if you have two.
4. If you have a constant pressure controller, look at the lights on the front of the unit.  If the red light is blinking, count the blinks and refer to the chart on the side of the unit.  You can reset the unit by turning off the power to the unit for 5 minutes.  If the fault continues, call us and tell us which fault you are experiencing.
5. If you still have no water, turn off the breakers to the well and call us for service.
