I have been having some problems with my low pressure switch failure to come on. The Gould pump and tank are about two years old. two months ago, the pump went dead so I called a plumber and he found the the pressure switch was burned out. So he replaced it and then checked the air pressure in my tank after empting the water and found was it was over 40 psi. He said it should be around (I think the mid to upper 20's) So he purged the air from the tank down to that level. He said that may have caused the switch burn out problem. The Low/High cut in/out look to be set about L28/H45 psi
Now 2 months later, the pump failed to come on again. So I check the switch and it look good. I tapped the box and the pump started and started to operate normally again. Now a day or so later it is still working ok. What could cause this.
