Why Barry County Homeowners Trust Hometown Plumbing for Well Systems
Pump Protection
A waterlogged bladder tank causes your well pump to "short cycle," leading to premature motor failure. We ensure your tank is sized and pressurized correctly to protect your most expensive well component.
Specialized Diagnostics
We don't just swap parts. As licensed, trained, and qualified technicians, we diagnose the entire assembly—from the pressure switch to the well tee—to ensure the root cause of your pressure issue is solved.
Premium Components
We use professional-grade tanks and heavy-duty brass well tees designed for longevity. We believe in doing the job once and doing it right, using materials that stand up to Barry County's water.
Signs Your Well System Needs Attention
Fluctuating Water Pressure: If your showers or faucets start strong then quickly drop to a trickle, it often indicates the bladder in your tank has failed.
Rapid Pump Cycling: Hearing your well pump click on and off every few seconds (short-cycling) is a major red flag that your tank can no longer maintain proper pressure.
Air "Spitting" from Faucets: When a bladder ruptures, air can enter the plumbing lines, causing faucets to sputter or spray unevenly.
Visible Corrosion on the Well Tee: Rust or green corrosion on the brass well tee assembly can lead to pinhole leaks and a total loss of water pressure.
Spiking Electric Bills: A failing tank forces your well pump to work much harder and more frequently, leading to a noticeable increase in monthly energy costs.
No Water at All: If the pressure switch or well tee components fail completely, your system will lose the ability to draw water into the home.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if my pressure tank is bad?
The most common sign for homeowners in Barry County is noticeable water pressure fluctuation—for example, while showering, the water pressure drops significantly and then surges back up. This usually means the internal bladder has ruptured, and the tank is "waterlogged." Our licensed, trained, and qualified technicians can perform a precise drawdown test to confirm if the tank has failed.
Why does my well pump keep clicking on and off rapidly?
This is called "short cycling," and it is a critical issue. It means your pressure tank has lost its air cushion, forcing the well pump to turn on every time you open a faucet, even for a second. This rapid cycling overheats the pump motor and will lead to premature—and expensive—well pump failure if not corrected quickly by a specialist.
What is a "well tee" and why does it need replacing?
The well tee is the brass fitting that acts as the hub connecting your piping to the pressure tank, pressure switch, and gauge. In areas like Hastings and Delton, high mineral content in the water can corrode cheaper galvanized or thin brass tees, leading to pinhole leaks or clogged sensor ports. We only install heavy-duty, solid brass tees designed for longevity.
Can I just buy a replacement tank at a big-box store?
Retail-grade tanks often use thinner steel and weaker internal bladders that may fail within 5-7 years under normal household use. As licensed and trained technicians, we install professional-grade tanks engineered with heavier materials designed to last 12-15+ years. We believe in protecting your home’s water supply with components built for the long haul, ensuring your pump isn't overworked by an inferior tank.
