I currently have a issue that I am trying to resolve. Once the pressure switch engages at the cut-in pressure ( 40PSI) it remains static at 40 for a couple of seconds then drops to zero psi for a few seconds ( maybe 5 ) and I lose water flow. Water then returns to 40 PSI and continues to climb until cut-off at 60 PSI. Pressure remains static and holds until water is used.....what could be the problem? What test can I run to find my issue? Is it a start capactior or run capacitor?
Below are the new items I have installed on the well to fix my low flow issue that took place originally. After installing the new items, my normal pressure in the house returned as usual and everything seems find...except for this.....any help is appreciated.
