Ok, never mind. I guess I was right. It tripped again already. They're changing the pump now.
I had a problem with my well recently where the overload relay would trip at night. Some of you on here help me figure out that the control box was bad so I replaced it and added a CSV. Recently, it...
Thanks. He just got me a little concerned.
I talked to a well guy after I installed a CSV1W. He seemed a little confused and concerned about the back pressure situation since the relief valve is moved to after the CSV. I told him that I...
If I put the relief valve in the garage, won't I have to run some kind of drain line?
I found a new control box for $65. For that price, I didn't feel like messing with one part at a time. I should have it installed this weekend. Then I'll start a new post about the CSV. I can already...
I think I'm onto something now. I found the well information on the TCEQ site (thanks valveman). I found out I have a 1.5 HP Goulds pump and verified the current draw and resistance measurments in...
I thought I remembered seeing some paperwork about the pump that said it was 3/4 HP but that was over 3 years ago. I can't find any info on the pump so I think I am going to replace the box and watch...
It is a 1.5 HP control box. Centripro CB15412CR. Please excuse my ignorance but does this mean it has to be a 1.5 HP pump? I didn't find any info on the pump at the courthouse so now I have to tear...
I looked up the AIM manual but I don't know if it applies to my pump yet. Due to the previously mentioned lawsuit with my builder, all of the information about my house, including the well, is at the...
Don't make any assumptions here. I actually had to sue the builder of my home for poor construction. I can't even figure out who dug the well because he fled to the Virgin Islands during the court...
The pump has been in operation for 3 yrs as of October 16th when we moved into the newly built house. I was assuming it was the pump.
The softener plugs into the GFCI outlet in the garage so I don't think it's on the same circuit. Electrical is not my specialty. I'll dig into that a little more when I get home. I did manual cycle...
My water softener recharges at night. The overload on the control box is what is tripping. I've tried to reproduce it by forcing the pump to cycle repeatedly with no luck. Is there anything a...
As a follow up, I measured the resistance between the legs on the motor at the well head. I got 9.2 Ohms Yellow-Red, 10.2 Ohms Red-Black and 2.8 Ohms Yellow to Black.
The overload on my pump control box has tripped 3 out of the last 4 nights. It only happens at night and we wake up to no water. When I reset it, the pump runs fine all day and then it trips again...
