I see this has been asked about a thousand times. Had air in the line, it was worse in the mornings or if it hadn't been used in a while. We could hear the air pull from outside when the pressure tank kicked on (bladder tank). Plumber came out and replaced well pump, well pipe, pitless adapter and all the wiring down there. When they took everything out, said it looked like a diy job, pump was from 2002, house built in 1987.
Water was fine for about a week but the air has come back with a vengeance. Now it's every time we turn the water on day or night, sputtering a lot, pipes are knocking. It was just upstairs but now is happening in the sink next to the pressure tank too. Pressure has stayed fine the whole time, and is actually better than it was before the pump was replaced (could this be part of the issue?) Still hearing it pull from outside when the tank kicks on.
Plumber is coming back, but I also wanted to get some opinions on what I should have him check out more.
