Wells and Pumps questions, answered by experts

Most well pump pressure switches have a factory setting of 30 to 50 PSI. There’s some flexibility with this if you’d like a lower or higher water pressure, but remember that it should sit 2 to 3 PSI above your well tank’s general pressure setting.

The inside of your pressure switch cover will usually indicate minimum and maximum settings—going below and above the numbers might damage your well pump.

The average three to four-bedroom home typically uses a well pump rated for 8 to 12 gallons per minute (GPM). To find the most accurate size for your specific needs, a common rule of thumb is to count the number of water fixtures and appliances in your home and aim for that number in GPM. This calculation allows for about one gallon of water per minute per fixture. Because estimating the correct size can be challenging, it's best to have a professional technician make the final determination. A professional can ensure your pump provides sufficient water for your home, especially during peak usage hours.

If your water pump fails, the first step is to turn off the power to the pump to prevent any further damage. Check for common issues such as clogs, electrical problems, or mechanical failures. If you cannot identify the problem, contact a professional who specializes in pump repairs. Prompt action can help minimize damage and repair costs.

No, a larger well pressure tank will not increase your home's water pressure by itself. Water pressure is determined by the pressure control switch on the well pump.

However, a larger tank does offer other benefits. It can store more water, which allows you to run water for longer periods before the pump needs to turn on. This reduces how often the pump cycles on and off, leading to less wear and tear on the pump and the entire well system. Consequently, a larger tank can help extend the life of your equipment and may prevent future pump issues that could affect water pressure.

If your goal is to increase water pressure, consider these alternatives:

  • Adjust the pressure settings on your tank to a higher PSI (pounds per square inch).

  • Replace your current pump with a model that has a higher flow rate, measured in gallons per minute (GPM).

  • Have a professional install a water pressure booster pump in your plumbing system.

  • If you experience pressure fluctuations, consider upgrading to a constant pressure system.

DIY is not recommended due to safety and technical requirements. Hire professionals for accurate diagnosis and repair.
