VIDEOClick to see full answer. Thereof, how do I adjust the water pressure on my well?Turn off the circuit dedicated to the well pump. Test the air fill valve with an air pressure gauge and see where your pressure lies. If the water pressure is floating around 40 psi or below, increase it by adjusting the pressure switch (this is located on the pipe connecting the well and pressure tank)Furthermore, how do I know if my pressure switch is bad? Here are some tell-tale signs that your pressure switch is beginning to fail: Your water pressure is at or above the cut-out pressure, yet the pump doesn’t turn off. Your pump doesn’t turn on at the proper cut-in pressure. You have low water pressure even though the pump is running. Likewise, how does a pressure switch work on a water pump? To put it in a nutshell, pressure switches basically tell the pump when to turn on and when to turn off. So in this example when the pressure in the system drops to 30 PSI, the switch activates and lets more water flow into the system. At 50 PSI, the switch turns off.Why is there no water in my pressure tank?If it appears that a bladder tank is not operating correctly, check the tank’s air charge: Drain the tank by opening the closest faucet. Check the tank’s pressure by placing an air pressure gauge on the air charging valve on the top of the tank. Add air if the pressure is more than 2 psi below the pump cut-in pressure.
