    Well water turns off in the shower, then comes back on again
    Sometimes it goes off for a few seconds other times almost a minute, it comes back on and then it's fine. Usually happens in the morning and just in the last week or so. Only thing that has been done in the house is the electrical service has been unpgraded

    Surface or submersible pump? Do you know if the pump's running after the water quits? Lotsa rain or has it been dry? How old is the pump? Trouble just start or has it been ongoing? Back to you, Tom

    Trouble just started about a week ago. Rain has been normal for this time of year. Rained twice this week. The pump is about 5 years old. It seemed to start after the electrical serivce to the house was upgraded from 100 to 200 amps

    The pump is about 6 years old, it's submersible. It comes right on after it shuts off and runs well. It's been rainy for the last couple of days.but before that dry.

    Trouble started about 2 weeks ago, around the time our electrical service was upgraded from 100 20 200 amps
