In response to Re: Well
: Within the past week, I noticed that my well has been running for no reason. : The pressure drops (slowly) with no faucets running, no leaks in any lines and no toilets running. I believe that the foot valve is leaking BUT wouldn't I get air in the line if that were the case? : I was going to purchase a new foot valve and add it to the line but thought I would ask first. : Much thanks : Dave Hedley You might want to see if you check valve is leaking. You have to pull the pump but you can clean it at then and hopefully get more water pressure.
