Thanks in advance for any advice here! My well water comes up from my well pump in a PCV line, 1 inch. However, just a foot or two before coming through my cinder block foundation/basement wall, it connects to copper, 3/4 in. pipe. Once through the wall, that copper line "tees" into 1/2 in...

Hi. Thanks in advance for any advice here. 1) I'm replacing supply pipe with new 200 psi roll pipe. Power wire is 12/3 and should be replaced but have to wait for now. Mostly good, with several splices. Some places showing abrasive wear from torque jerks. 1) I'm using liquid electric tape...

OK, currently my pump is not cycling correctly. Pressure switch is new but I've monkeyed with the adjustment screws pretty much. I'm wondering if I ruined it by monkeying with the adjustment screws too much. Context: Had a bad leak in water line coming into house. Before I replaced pressure...

Problem: Water out. Pump pressure down well below cut-in pressure. (Pressure switch does have safety cut-off switch to prevent pump burn out.) I'm posting here in hopes of getting some advice on how to proceed. (If I don't figure this out soon, the Supreme Allied Commander will not be pleased...

Hi. Thanks for any advice upfront here. (I have not donated but I certainly will once I get past this hopefully fairly inexpensive fix.) Serious leak must be right below my well head cap...I can hear it gushing. Please see attached photo for this post...I’m not a plumber so I do not know all...

I'm about to dig down to find the top of my septic tank as well as the two "Catch boxes" (or whatever you call them) that are apparently on either side and just a few feet away from the main tank. Each box is located on separate lines, each of which run from different houses: my residence, and...

Thanks in advance for any advice. I have to pull my pump...bummer. Have already changed out the pressure switch and the control box. Control box tries again and gain to cut it on, but the pump won't start. Any tricks to try before I pull all that pipe :rolleyes:
