I have an older home built on cinder blocks with a well and water softener. No big deal! Water does trickle down one wall whenever it rains or when the snow thaws, but it goes into a drain and then dries up. About three years ago, I had the well pump replaced. About a month ago, I noticed water on the floor along the opposite wall (from where the water normally trickles). I did not see any noticeable pipes leaking or water heater leakage, but it dried up and I ignored it. I did not see any water until two days ago. Now there is a lot more water on the floor right at the bottom of the steps in my basement along that same wall. The water is clear (not soapy) and again I cannot locate any noticeable pipe leaks. I am stumped! I have however noticed the well pump has recently been running approximately every 10 minutes. The pump has not usually run that often. Could these two things be connected? Could it be a pressure tank issue (it is an older tank)? I thought about calling someone in, but I am not sure what I would tell them? Any ideas...
