The single largest factor in your pump’s life expectancy is the frequency of your pump’s duty cycle. The number of times a day your pump runs can increase wear and tear on the motor, which will inevitably shorten its life.

The most important factors to consider when sizing a water pump come down to GPM/PSI ratings, inlet/outlet size for water and hoses, how high you'll need to pump the water (measured in vertical feet), referred to as total head lift, and how far you'll need to pump the water horizontally.

How often should a well pump be serviced?

An annual well maintenance check, including a bacterial test, is recommended. Any source of drinking water should be checked any time there is a change in taste, odor or appearance, or anytime a water supply system is serviced. Reach us at 916-925-8508, or Contact us online at www.odellspump.net to learn more about our services.

A well pump that's struggling to pump water efficiently might run nonstop. This can happen for many reasons, including a leak in the suction line. A similar problem is short cycling, where the pump runs for a short time and shuts off. If you notice your pump isn't shutting off or is short cycling, have it checked out. Reach us at 916-925-8508, or Contact us online at www.odellspump.net to learn more about our services.

What type of well pump is best?
In most cases, if the well is less than 25 feet deep, a centrifugal or shallow-well jet pump is suitable. If the well is between 25-110 feet, a deep-well jet pump is usually ideal. For deeper wells, a submersible pump may be the best choice. Reach us at 916-925-8508, or Contact us online at www.odellspump.net to learn more about our services.

Normal water pressure for a house with a well is 30 to 60 psi.
Water pressure fluctuations are common in private well systems, and, unfortunately, it's something you might be too familiar with. Typically, 55 psi is a good level of pressure to maintain. But the value varies and generally falls within the 30 to 60 psi range.

A water pump is not one-size-fits-all.
Each home has its own unique needs. You cannot assume that one submersible water pump will work in just any water tank. You must make sure your water well pump is ideal for your home and water pressure needs. If you’re unsure, have our team come to your home for a free analysis.

How does a well pump motor work?
The motor powers impellers, which in turn drive the water upward. Turning on the pressure switch causes impellers to spin, thereby sucking water into the pump. The water gets pushed through the body of the pump, then into a storage tank on the ground's surface. When you require pumps or motors for water management, call us at 916-925-8508 to talk to our experts.

How do you calculate what size well pump I need?
Pumps are rated in GPM (gallons per minute). A typical 3- to 4-bedroom home requires 8-12 GPM. When determining your home water needs, add one GPM for every water fixture in your home. Such fixtures include clothes washers, dishwashers, faucets, refrigerators, showers and outdoor water spigots. When you require pumps or motors for water management, call us at 916-925-8508 to talk to our experts.

Low water pressure is usually one of the most obvious signs that your well pump isn't working properly. However, you might also notice fluctuations in the pressure. Other things can also cause water pressure changes, though, so you might need a plumber or well service provider to determine the cause.

A lot of technicians replace the water pump and the timing belt at the same time. Water pumps and timing belts are built to last the same amount of time, so once the timing belt goes, the water pump isn’t too far behind (or vice versa).
