Some homes here water the yard from an irrigation well. Recent home listings in the neighborhood mention one alongside the carport and workshop. On older setups, the usual faults are:
- Pressure switches with pitted contacts that need a tap to start.
- Jet pumps past their best that hum, leak at the seal or can't reach the last zone.
- Relays and timers that start the pump when nothing should be running.
If you're retired and want a straight answer on repair vs replace, that's exactly what the contractor should give you, with the readings to back it up.
Common questions
Do you work in the 55+ part of Hollywood Estates?
Yes, the whole neighborhood.
My pump only starts if I tap the switch. Is that safe?
Not for long. The contacts are worn and can stick on. Have the switch replaced; it's a small job.
How do I know if my sprinklers run from a well?
If there's a pump on a pad by the house and no reuse meter, it's likely a well. The contractor can confirm.
