pump problem i think

new2me · 2018-02-19 23:36:50

had water running a few hours then just stopped pumping water but pump continues, its a deep well pump, 130ft down and we checked both pipes to footvalve but plenty of water in them. we again primed the pump but not building up any pressure

If you're sure the Pump is still running then the Impeller could have come loose or it could have worn away due to gavel or Sand in the bottom of the Well.
Unfortunately you will need to take it up to determine the cause.
