    Plumbing/ Loss of water pressure
    I have a shallow well pump with a pressured tank. My problem is, that when my pump starts to recharge the system, and I am running water, the water stops flowing for a second or two and then continues until the next cycle. Could it be the check value between the well and the pump?

    Check the flow switch and the pressure switch.
