Is your pump running and never shutting off?
That is a common reason Purcellville homeowners call us. The first thing to check might surprise you: a running toilet. A toilet that keeps refilling pulls water all day, and the pump never gets a rest. So can a dripping outside spigot or a leak in the yard line.
If none of that explains it, the problem may be a worn pump, a leak in the well, or a failed part. Call 703-791-3981 and we will walk through it together.
Well pump repair in Purcellville
Purcellville is out in western Loudoun, near Route 7 and Route 690. Western Loudoun County is part of our regular service area. Western Loudoun is part of our regular run. A phone call lets us plan the visit right.
We will ask things like:
- How old is the pump, if you know?
- Does the pressure gauge climb, or just sit?
- Is there water pooling near the well?
- Has the water changed color, taste or smell?
Those answers point us toward the pump, the tank, a leak, or the water itself. If it is something you can check safely, like the breaker or the air in the tank with the power off, we will walk you through it. If it needs us, we come out with the right parts.
Acidic water in western Loudoun
Much of western Loudoun sits on crystalline rock, and wells there can produce low pH water. You might see blue-green stains on fixtures. Acidic water can be hard on metal parts, including the pump. A pH test tells you where you stand, and an acid neutralizer can correct it.
Some owners notice the stains long before any equipment trouble. It pays to test early rather than wait until copper lines start to show wear.
