I have a strange situation.
Wellmate Pump and treatment system.
The system is roughly 10 years old and has never had a problem prior. We have lived in the house for 3.5 years.
What happens:
- about every 1 hour and 20 minutes the pressure reaches 80 psi
- the relief valve spits out 6+ ounces of water
- pressure drops to 38-42
- pressure again builds to 80 psi, repeat
I never paid attention to what the pressure did when in use. Now, it seems that after water is run from any source in the house, about 30 seconds later we get a pressure spike and the relief valve dumps some water. This is in addition to the steps outlined above that occur roughly every hour and twenty minutes +/-.
Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated. Glad to find the forum!
Thanks!
