    Challenger series well tank
    While water was in use last night the water stopped coming to the house there is 15 lbs pressure in the tank over night the enough water came in to fill the tank on the toilet, does that mean my pump is OK? There is a little water coming out not very much. Any ideas??

    More details please! Is this a surface or a submersible pump? Why do you have two bladder tanks? Please explain the 15 psi. Is that which you charge your tanks at? When the pump shuts off. What does your pressure gauge read? Back to you, Tom

    Is the pump running when the pressure is reading 15#?
