Hi,
I really need help because I am at a loss of what or who to call...
I live in Clinton Township, Michigan, and have a well and septic system at our house. I am having a problem with the well. It loses water pressure to a point that every 5-10 minutes, it turns on for a second or two to get the pressure up again. The problem is that when we have a power failure (storm or whatever), I have to prime the pump to get it to run.
My neighbor thinks it is the flapper at the bottom of the well that is not sealing properly, thus losing pressure.
Do you have any suggestions or contacts? I contacted the company that did our drain field (Rattee's Septic), but they couldn't suggest anyone.
Thank you in advance for any responses,
Kelly McCarty
