My 1/2 hp 10 gpm submersible well pump went out after 20 years and I had to replace it. I installed a new Redjacket 1 hp wioth a 20 gpm. After 2-3 weeks this pump failed, basically locked up. I returned the pump and it failed a 2nd time within 2-3 weeks.
I had the wiring and pressure tank checked/recharged then the pressure switch(replaced). I installed another new 1/2 hp 10 gpm pump and now that is having problems after 3-4 weeks. I turn the water on and have no pressure. Wait and hour and then I have water??? I assume that this pump is failing as well????
The well is 140 ft deep. I had a well technician perform all the work and he says the well does have water in it sufficient to satisfy my needs.
So I am baffled to say the least. Is there anyone that can give me some explanation of what is going on if possible. I want to have my information handy when I call another well company because I am not sure if I am getting the correct information.
Thank you in advance.
