Well Pump Services in Maryland, Pennsylvania & West Virginia

When it comes to homes that rely on wells for their water supply, maintaining adequate water pressure is essential. Unlike homes connected to municipal water systems, which receive water under constant pressure, well systems require the assistance of well pumps to deliver water with sufficient force.

That’s why homeowners in Maryland, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia who rely on a well system need a team they can trust to deliver fast, reliable well pump solutions when they need them most.

At Larry & Sons Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Electrical, we’ve proudly offered the top-quality plumbing services that families have trusted for more than 60 years.

What Is a Well Pump?

At the heart of a well system lies the well pump — a key component responsible for drawing water from the well and delivering it to your home.

This mechanical device operates by creating suction or using pressure to lift water from the underground source and propel it through the plumbing system.

A well-maintained well pump ensures a continuous supply of water for your needs.

Well Pump Repair in MD, PA & WV

Over time, well pumps may experience wear and tear or encounter issues that require repair. It’s important to be aware of the signs that may indicate the need for immediate attention, including:

  • Decreased water pressure: If you notice a significant drop in water pressure, it could be a sign of a failing well pump. The pump may be unable to generate sufficient pressure to deliver water effectively.
  • Inconsistent water flow: Fluctuating water flow or irregular spurts of water can suggest issues with the well pump. These disruptions in water delivery may indicate a need for repair.
  • Strange system noises: Unusual sounds — such as grinding, squealing, or clanking noises coming from the well pump — could indicate mechanical problems that require attention.
  • Increased energy consumption: A sudden increase in energy consumption without any other apparent cause may be linked to a malfunctioning well pump. An inefficient pump can strain your electrical system and lead to higher energy bills.

If you notice any of these signs, don’t hesitate to contact the experienced plumbers at Larry & Sons for the fast, reliable response you need. With lifetime repair guarantees, you can rest assured that our resolution will last.

Well Pump Installation & Replacement

While proper maintenance and timely repairs can extend the life of your well pump, there may come a time when replacement is necessary. Well pumps typically have a life span of 10 to 15 years, although this can vary depending on several factors.

Factors that affect the life span of a well pump include:

  • Water quality: The presence of sediment, sand, or minerals in the water can contribute to increased wear on the well pump components, potentially shortening its life span.
  • Frequency of use: A well pump that operates frequently, such as in households with high water demand, may experience accelerated wear and require replacement sooner.
  • Installation quality: Proper installation of the well pump, including appropriate sizing, adequate grounding, and correct wiring, can impact its longevity.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does a well pump work?

Well pumps function by creating suction or using pressure to lift water from underground sources and deliver it to your home.
They are typically powered by electricity and work in conjunction with a pressure tank to maintain water pressure.

How can I increase my water pressure?

If you are experiencing low water pressure, several factors could be at play. It’s advisable to consult with a professional plumber who can assess your well system and recommend the appropriate service.
Potential solutions may include adjusting pressure switch settings, installing a constant pressure system, or replacing your well pump.

How does a pressure tank work with a well pump?

A pressure tank is an integral part of a well system. It stores water under pressure, allowing the well pump to cycle on and off as needed.
When water is consumed in your home, the pressure tank releases water into the plumbing system, providing consistent water pressure.
Once the tank reaches a preset low-pressure threshold, the well pump activates to refill the tank.
