    Pressure Gauge goes over 100psi!

    the problem is solved. the stem where the gauge and switch attach was so clogged I don know how any water was getting through! After cleaning out that little pipe, all works perfect again.

    Pressure Gauge goes over 100psi!

    new gauge? Can you just got to the hardware store, Lowe's or Home Depot, etc, and screw on a new gauge? Isn't the gauge connected somehow to the pressure switch? It does sound like the pressure gauge isn't reading right. I put it at 40-60 and now when it gets to 40 there is NO pressure in any...

    No cut in pressure stability

    Whenever my cut in switch is set to 40psi (tank @ 38psi) the water pressure simply disappears even though the gauge still says 40psi. Then it takes at least one minute before the pump kicks in and pressurizes the system. If I try to move the pressure switch up or down any amount of psi (meaning...

    Pressure Gauge goes over 100psi!

    3 stories Pump is off! You can hear it run and then shut off...There's no way a pump keeps running after the electricity is cut off from it and you can hear it stop running. So, I wonder if the two stories above the basement would have any way of building backpressure that would somehow...

    Pressure Gauge goes over 100psi!

    My systems was suddenly sending high pressure water to the faucets. The pump would run to the designated 60PSI and shut off. But the pressure gauge would continue to rise past 80PSI!. Upon inspection I found the Well-Trol 40gal tank had seen it's better days, the bladder had burst, so I...
