How to Fix Low Water Pressure for Well Systems

Does your home or commercial property use a well system for fresh water? If so, then you may have experienced low water pressure, which is common for well users. Thankfully, there are steps that property owners can take to improve their water pressure. At Rooter Hero Plumbing, we provide high quality services for clients in California and Arizona area communities, including treating low water pressure. If you are fed up with your trickling water supply and are looking for solutions, read below to find out how to fix low water pressure for your well system. 

How to Service Your Pressure Tank 

Ideally, the average home’s water pressure should remain between 40 and 60 psi. If your pressure is too low and you wish to increase it, then you may consider improving it by servicing your pressure tank. First, turn off the dedicated circuit that powers your well pump. This is a very important step, because ignoring this could lead to electrocution or personal injury. Next, you will need to test the air fill valve with an air pressure gauge to see what your psi is. If your water pressure is settling around 40 psi or below, you can adjust the pressure switch located on the pipe near the well and pressure tank. When you have made the necessary adjustments, you can return to your circuit breaker and turn the power back on to see if it has improved. 

Inspecting Your Pipes 

It is also possible that you are experiencing low water pressure because of a hidden leak or buildup of minerals and sediment. This is often a problem for property owners that use wells, due to hard water. Test your water supply to see if adjustments should be made. You may also want to invest in a professional cleaning, inspection or leak detection service to ensure that your plumbing system is working at its best. 

Should You Install a New Constant Pressure System? 

If your existing pressure tank needs a little assistance, then you may want to consider installing a constant pressure system, which will prevent a drop in water pressure due to heavy water usage. Water pressure booster pumps may also be a potential solution. An inspection can help you determine the exact source of your low water pressure, so you can fix the problem long term. Speak with our team today and we will create a customized solution that fits your unique needs, lifestyle and budget.
