So, let me start by saying, this is very baffling to me and my father...... we have swapped jet pumps in the past, pulled well lines and replaced (by hand) in the past, swapped pressure tanks and pressure switches over the years so I would say we have more than a general knowledge.
My property up north I bought has a submersible (3 wire) pump that feeds (2) outside water spigots, one that I hook up to my RV for water and the other we just use for a hose. I have no structure built on the property and my breaker box is mounted to my electrical pole under my meter. This past weekend I went to turn the water on in the morning and I had no water, I checked my 220 breaker for the pump and it was fine, I flipped it off and then back on several times, still no water.
The next thing you would check would be the pressure switch (I'm not aware of one in the system), I don't have a blue pressure tank either, I know the pump usually would kick on/off due to change in water pressure when I'm watering the yard in the shower or just using the hose.
I have reached out to someone who knows the original owner to ask about the system, figuring there must be an underground tank near the well, but I'm not aware of it. the original owner said there wasn't one.
So i'm baffled, i'm not aware of a submersible pump that has internal pressure switch, constant volume pump would still require a pressure switch and a control box. Any help or thoughts would be fantastic...thanks!
