NO WATER PRESSURE?  NO WATER AT ALL?
If your well quits producing water or you notice a decrease in water pressure...don’t panic!  Chances are, the problem may not be related to your well going dry.  Check the following potential causes first:

1.      Check the pressure tank to make sure it is functioning properly:
                Is the pressure tank "on/off" switch "on"?
                You may want to have a professional evaluate the tank for problems.

2.      Check your well pump to make sure it is functioning properly:
                You may have blown a fuse.
                Is your pump old?  It may need to be replaced.
                Check the pump wiring to make sure it is okay.

If your pump and pressure tank appear to be okay, then your problems may be due to a drop in the water level in your well.  First, check to see if your pump can be lowered.  If not, then you may be faced with having to deepen your well to get water again.  Contact a licensed well driller for assistance.
