Not much to write about

The water issue I mentioned earlier was a leak in the pipe running from my well to the house. It caused a noticeable drop in water pressure and was sufficient to form a small pool in the driveway. A couple days ago, I went to Lulu's house in town (we alternate) and before leaving, I shut the pump off to let the ground dry out a bit. A couple of friends spent the morning here digging a 90 foot long trench and putting in some new pipe. I go to turn the pump on and nothing. No pump sound and no water pressure. I had just replaced the pressure switch so I figured that the motor controller was broken. I run into town to get a new controller, came back, swapped it for the old one and nothing. No pump sound and no water pressure. I am getting a weekly physical therapy session in a few hours and will head over to Lulu's after -- running hot water is a wonderful thing. I'll pick up a new pump in town and get it running tomorrow afternoon. Fun fun fun... Posted by DaveH at December 7, 2011 3:02 PM
