With water running from the faucet, my well pump cuts-in around 28 psi. When it slowly reaches around 37 psi it rapidly jumps to 50 psi and then the pumps cuts-out. Then the pressure drops rapidly down to around 37 psi. From 37 psi down to 28 the pressure drops normal. What is causing the rapid pressure increase and decrease between 37 and 50 psi?
I drained the water in system until 0 psi on gage. I checked tank pressure with an air gage. I could not add more air above 21 psi using a bicycle pump.
Why could'nt I add more air to the tank?
