    Why does my water well cycle on and off constantly
    My water well constantly cycles on and off. Pressure goes up then down.

    If this happens only while water is being used, then you have a waterlogged tank. Press the little tire valve on top of the tank for a few seconds. If water comes out, then you have found the problem.

    If this happens when water is NOT being used, then you have a leak somewhere, probably in a checkvalve.

    BTW, is your pump in the well or above ground?
