Checker questions
Is the checker a substitute for a service call?
Why does it tell me to turn the breaker off?
A submersible pump running without water, or a motor shorting to ground, can be ruined in minutes. Turning the breaker off protects it until a tech can test it.
What are the most common causes of no water?
A tripped breaker, a failed pressure switch, a control-box capacitor (often after storms), a waterlogged pressure tank, a failed pump, or a water level that has dropped to the pump intake. Our no water from well guide covers each.
