    Why is there no running water in my house
    We have a submerged well pump. We had running water an hour ago and now there is no water at all. We checked breakers, it wasn't that. The pump has no power at all. What can we do?

    How do you know the pump has no power? What did you check? How did you check the breaker? Did you check for power at the control box? If you have power on the pump side of the control box, unless your well is dry, you have a bad pump.

    Brian nailed it.

    Check for power at the pressure switch.

    Are contacts open or closed at pressure switch? If closed and u can not hear pump or feel it in water line then pump is probably bad.s are open, close using piece of wood or insulated screwdriver. If pump does not come on, problem is either line to pump or pump.

    If contact
