Wells and Pumps questions, answered by experts

Though sprinkler systems can have varying issues, there are a few common ways to know if the cause is your pump. Signs include cracking or visible damage, leaking from the pump, a pump that won’t turn on, and loud noises coming from your pump. Low or irregular pressure could also point to a pump problem, but there are other causes.

Age is certainly a factor in well pump failure. The older your pump, the more likely it is to fail. 

Beyond age, other factors can cause your well pump to fail, too. Things like poor water quality can cause sediment buildup in your pump. Without proper cleaning, your pump can seize up and fail. Having a dry well for too long can also cause your pump to fail, as it keeps working even though there's no water for it to pull. 

No. Well pump replacement is not recommended as a DIY project, particularly if you have a deep well and a submersible pump. Plumbing and electricity are best left to the pros, especially when something like your well pump includes both. Even when troubleshooting your pump, it pays to have a partner standing by for your assistance and safety.

Yes, you can oversize a well pressure tank without harming your well system, as there are no major risks involved. The primary advantage of a larger tank is an increased lifespan due to less frequent pump cycling. Fewer startups and longer, slower runtimes mean less wear and tear on the system and can help conserve energy. The main drawbacks are the higher upfront cost and the larger amount of space required for an oversized tank. While not necessarily a bad thing, it is often more efficient to select an appropriately sized tank to save money and space.

If the well pump is more than 10 years old, it's worth contacting a well pump repair pro near you and weighing the cost of repairs against buying a new well pump. Pumps can last a long time with regular maintenance, but if your pump is nearing the 10-year mark and starts needing repairs frequently, it’s time to replace it.
