Got a new place a month ago. Jet pump was kicking on every 28 minutes with no water use. I have made sure there is no leak in the house anywhere. Now I just had my foot valve replaced 5 days ago thinking that was the problem. After doing that the jet pump would only kick on every 50 minutes but now after a few days it's back down to kicking on every 28 minutes.
I'm thinking the problem may be the lines that go from the pitless adapter down to the ejector. I have a deep well with 80 foot lines on it. When looking down in the well casing I see the water level at about 20 feet down.
With the pump plugged in and at full pressure I can hear humming coming from the well and the water 20 feet down looks like it is vibrating. This is constant even when the pump is not turned on. With the pump unplugged there is no vibration at all and all the water in my house drains out.
Does it sound like one of the lines that are connected to the pitless adapter are leaking and causing the well casing to fill up while also causing the water to vibrate?
