    Air in water lines

    We have lived in our home for 4 years and the owner had just put in a new well. When we have turned on the water latley there seems to be air in the lines. It spits and sputters the entire time you are using it. Like running bath water or brushing our teeth. What could be the problem?:(

    Call your well guy back. Several things could be wrong. The pump cavatating, a leak nin the suction line allowing air to enter, a lowered water table and the pump sucks air. Get someone to check it out. Good luck, Tom
