How to regenerate my well?
Posted by Harvey on January 04, 19100 at 23:43:48:
What is the right way to charge or regenerate my pressure tank. I seem to be doing something wrong.

I have been
1.turning off the power to the well pump
2. running the water ontil there is no or very little water coming out.
3. I then have been closing the handle on the water
4. hooking up my air compressor to the pressure tank and pumping in about 40 to 50lbs of air.
5 I then turn on the power to the well and let it build up to 60lbs via the well pump.

I always seem to be ending up with low water pressure and need to regenerat a lot?

Can you please tell me what Im doing wrong or for that mater what is the right way to do it.

Thank you for any help you can offer
