Recently I have noticed a loss in water pressure throughout my house. However, some of the faucets were only slightly noticeable while a couple others were reduced significantly. On the two that showed the greatest reduction, I disconnected the water lines and cleaned the screens/filters. In both cases there was sediment build-up and the water pressure increased significantly. However, I still notice an overall reduction throughout the house and at times I notice air coming out when the faucet is first turned on.

I had a plumber come out and he said that everything internally looked okay, but when he went out to the well the pump was only pulling about 5 amps and he said it should be at about 10 amps. He also said that it was running the whole time as a result.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I am also wondering about how I can go about checking for blockage within my pipes or any filters that may exist.

Thanks for your help in advance!

Did he tell you if the well had sand encroachment?
