If you’ve been having trouble with your water supply lately, it might be time to schedule a pumping service. The well pump is responsible for drawing water to the surface, making it one of the most critical components of your home’s water system. If it fails, you won’t be able to use your faucets and showers.

Here are some of the signs of well pump failure you need to watch out for:

• Loud Noises: A failing well pump can produce odd noises. When air escapes from the pressure tank bladder, the well pump will start and stop frequently, causing the switch to make a clicking sound. A submersible pump that is struggling to generate water can also create loud noises. As soon as you hear them, call for pumping service right away.

• Low Pressure to No Water: If the water coming out of your faucet is less than normal, you should have your plumbing system checked right away. If water flow has completely stopped and the plumber has ruled out broken pipes and clogged lines, your well pump is no longer working and needs to be replaced.

• High Electric Bill: A failing well pump eventually reduces the efficiency of your home’s water system. When components are already worn out, the system needs to work extra hard to produce a sufficient flow of water. This requires more power, which raises your electric bill. If you experience a sudden spike in your monthly dues, have your well pump and pressure tank inspected.
