Customers say: Quality work

"Commonwealth Plumbing is a small local operation. The plumber came quickly to assess my farm well pump problem and was ready to tackle the job. He received a call from a customer who had no water in the house with children. The plumber asked if he could take care of that job first as a genuine concern. My well pump is just for irrigation which is not critical compared to a family without water. The plumber headed off , took care of the family and returned first thing the next morning and repaired my system. Excellent work, reasonable price, as well as compassionate."

"Shaun at Dean plumbing was very easy to work with. He is very responsive and attentive, my well was back up and running in just a few hours! Not only did he replace my Well pump he diagnosed my entire system which I’m glad he does because my pressure tank was going bad aswell. Shaun explains his work and what he thinks is best for your situation. From time of call to him being at my house for service was less than 24 hours!! Highly recommend this company for all your plumbing needs!!!"

"Response time was awesome as well as customer service. They scheduled our appt same day with a 2 hour window and arrived on time. I was trying to replace a bathroom faucet when I noticed that my shut off valves were not turning off the water completely. They confirmed that my 22 year old valves were not working properly and replaced them as well as changing out the faucet for me. The next day I noticed I had a slight leak under a sink in another bathroom. No amount of me making adjustments was working and I noticed that the valves in this bathroom were also not shutting off the water. I called them and they came out and changed out the valves and fixed my leak. I couldn't be happier with the level of service provided by ECR."

Wells and Pumps questions, answered by experts

For the most part, choosing between 30/50 psi and 40/60 psi is based on your water-pressure preference. However, it can also depend a little bit on your house—if you have older plumbing, a lower water pressure can be easier on the pipes (and a bit more gentle on your well pump). 

The lower 30/50 pressure is usually enough for a single-story home, but you may want 40/60 if you have multiple stories, as the extra pressure helps water flow smoothly up to the second floor.

The pressure in a well pressure tank should be set 2 to 3 PSI below the pump's cut-on pressure. The cut-on pressure is the lower number in the pressure setting (e.g., the '30' in 30/50 PSI) and is the point at which the pump starts. The cut-out pressure is the higher number, where the pump stops.

For example:

  • If your pressure switch is set to 30/50 PSI, the tank pressure should be 27-28 PSI.

  • If your pressure switch is set to 40/60 PSI, the tank pressure should be 38 PSI.

Common pressure settings for household applications include 20/40, 30/50, and 40/60 PSI. The difference between the cut-on and cut-out pressure is typically 20 PSI.

A professional well inspection takes between one and three hours. This includes the time it takes for the inspector to visually check the condition of your well, test its equipment, and collect water for testing. After the pro sends the water samples to the lab, you can expect to receive the results in three to 10 days.

Unfortunately, yes. If your well pump continues working when the flow of water is completely blocked, the motor will burn up. The energy has nowhere to go, thanks to the blockage, so it turns inward. The end result? A ruined well pump and a depleted bank account (once you shop for a replacement.) 

If you have a small well or a particularly high water demand, it’s possible to overuse your well. How quickly a well replenishes depends on its water source. In this case, you may want to purchase a water storage tank that you can fill from the well in off-hours, or if you’re planning to build a new well and you expect a large water demand, you may want to build a deeper well to match your needs.
