Typical submersible pump with a pressure tank and pressure switch in the crawl space. The system is connected to one outside tap for irrigation only. Pressure switch shuts the pump off at 45lbs. When the tap is turned on water flows until pressure reduces to 35lbs. Pump is not switch on so water stops. If the outside tap is closed the pressure switch turns the pump on and the cycle repeats.
I should also note that this problem started directly after I disconnected a water softener system that was in place when the well service the house. Now that it is for irrigation only I do not need it. During the last year I have had the softener bypassed on the control head. During that time the system functioned normally.
A pic is attached for reference. Thanks in advance.
