We have had very low pressure in the last day or so. Its not even enough to reach the faucets and there is a pool outside around the well and runs like a river.
I took the cap off and the motor is humming just fine and there is no water movement that I can see with a flashlight. Just a lot of water coming from the outside of the casing.
Is this more than likely the pitless adapter having a huge leak on the outside of it? since the inside is fine and no water leaking the o-ring seems fine. Not sure exactly how its connected on the outside of the casing though. could that be where its leaking? We did notice when changing the filter it instantly soils up and looks like it need changed again right after putting one in. We just though we were going to need a new pump soon so took it as rust. Its 8yrs old if that matters
This is my first post on here so im not sure what all is needed by way of information to help me. I think I pretty much covered it. if anyone needs more just let me know. I will be checking this all day since the wife is on my rear end to get this taken care of. lol.
Thanks for any information on this. I thought I was going to have to change the pump but when I went to see which pitless I had in case I need to go get some pipe to pull it I saw the water flooding throughout the yard. Its off at this time.
