Well Pump Pressure Switch Replacement
If your well pump isn’t turning on—or you hear rapid clicking—your pressure switch is could be the cause.
Your pressure switch is the small device that tells your well pump when to turn on and off. When it fails, your system can’t build pressure—and you’ll notice no water or very weak flow throughout the home.
​
If you hear clicking, see low pressure, or your pump won’t turn on at all, we can replace your pressure switch quickly and get your water flowing again.

Signs Your Pressure Switch Needs to be Replaced
-
Rapid clicking at the switch
-
Low or unstable pressure
-
Burned or blackened switch contacts
-
Pressure swings or pulsing water
What Your Pressure Switch Actually Controls
Your pressure switch monitors water pressure in your system. When pressure drops to the cut-in level (often 30–40 PSI), it tells the pump to turn on. When the pressure reaches the cut-out level (50–60 PSI), it shuts the pump off.
​
When the switch fails, you may experience:
-
Pump not turning on
-
Pump not turning off
-
Rapid clicking
-
Slow pressure recovery
-
No water at all
​
A failed switch can also put strain on the pump and pressure tank if left unaddressed.
Common Cause of Pressure Switch Failure
-
Corrosion or rust
-
Debris inside the switch
-
Worn or melted contacts
-
Waterlogged pressure tank
-
Electrical wear
-
Broken springs
-
Incorrect pressure settings
