Solve the water pump problem, walk jerk in 5 steps.

Anyone who has a "pressure pump automatic water pump" should be able to experience frequent cutting water pumps. Make a lot of noise. The water is not flowing strong (especially on the upper floor of the house). When we often turn on the water, today we will tell you why and share how to fix it ourselves in 5 steps.

The round tank water pump has a body on top and an air tank on the bottom. When first activated, the water replaces the air in the tank below (about half the tank). This causes the air to push the water in the tank through the pipe out to different water supply points in the house.

☝️ cause of the water pump walking jerk

It usually happens that when a water pump is in use for a while, the amount of air pressure (Bar) decreases because water replaces the air until it fills the tank, so there is no air pressure in the tank that helps send the water out of the pressure tank, so the pump motor works very often.

😊 Now let's see the solution.

5️⃣ Step Solution Water Pump Walk Jerk

The principle is to expel water from the tank to re-fill the air according to the following steps:

1. Remove the power plug of the water pump, and pip the switch or disengage the breaker to cut the current.

2. Close the water inlet valve or the valve leaving the water tank to the upper water pump (valve 2) and close the water outlet valve (valve 3) following the lower water pump into the house.

3. Use a tool with a flat, strong taper shape, such as a screwdriver or jaw. Plug it into the drain hole cork groove at the bottom of the water pump air tank. Turn it counterclockwise to take out the water in the tank (the water will have a slight pressure during the spin-off cork, then it will flow gently).

4. Fill the tank air by the air corkscrew on top of the water pump out to let the air into the new pressure tank, and to help the water drain out faster (the drained water will flow stronger). Wait until the water drains out until the water starts to flow down, close the bottom drain cork, and the air fill cork on top of the original place.

5. Turn on the water inlet valve, turn on the electric breaker, and plug the water pump to run for a moment until it stops working. Then gently open the water valve to let the water flow into the pipe in the house as usual.

Finally, test the operation of the pump by turning on the faucet or water supply point in the house. If the pump walks and stops in a long rhythm, does not walk frequently or twitch again, then the pump scavenging is good. 👍
