I have a well water system in my house however in the last couple of weeks I have been losing water pressure. Especially if I have more than one source pulling from the pump.

I have a Pump and reservoir in the basement the pump fills the tank and I us what is in the tank it only about 5 gallons and as the tank needs more it pumps it up.
But as of last week if I have the washer going and open the faucet in the kitchen for water I have a very noticeable water pressure issue. Can anyone give any ideas?


Thanks john

I believe that I may be able to help you, it sounds like your tank may be low on air. If you have a Diagphram type tank you may have a busted tank, if it is an older type with no bladder or diagphram you probably need to add air to the tank.
