I was woken up about 4 this morning by my water well cycling off and on at about 20 second intervals. It has been about 23 degress, so I figured I had a pipe burst or maybe the ground
shifted and I broke a water line.
So I shut the well off at the breaker, spent about 20 minutes fixing a cranky flashlight and investigated. I found no signs of water leakage. So I turned the well back on and now
everything appears to be okay. No pump cycling and the pressure is steady.
Since it is still dark I am going wait for daylight and run the water for several minutes to thaw out the break in case it refroze.
Does anyone have any suggestions on what else I could look at? I am not sure at this point if I will need to call a plumber or the company that installed the well. BTW the well is about 4 1/2 years old.
Thanks in adavance for any suggesionts.
