Hi there.
I have a Goulds 1hp swallow well pump. My holding tank is from Lowes ( dont know brand) Anyhow, my pressure was set at 18 in the tank and pressure switch was set at 20/40. Everything was fine then all of a sudden when the pressure switch was called to kick on, it hestitated for about 10 seconds. This problem got worse very quickly. Wrnt from 10 seconds to about 30 and now I have no water. I can force the points ( amature) together to get water but that's not right.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Going to drain pressure tank today and check pressure. Pressure tank is fairly new. App 2 yrs old. It's not water logged but if the pressure isnt right could it casue this problem?
I have a new pressure switch, but not sure how to install and what all i need to drain in order to install. Please help!!! or advise on anything I may be over looking.
