I recently replaced my pressure switch and tank. The pressure switch is set at 40 to 60 for cut in and out. I put 38 psi in the new tank. My pump is in the well.
Here is my problem. My tank is not filling up the pump runs for a min or so it builds up the pressure to 60 then as soon as it shuts off it starts dropping. Within a min it’s down to 40 and cutting on again. Even when I shut the valve going to the house it does the same thing. I’m guessing I have a bad check valve. But shouldn’t the tank be filling up?
Please help thanks
