Hello, me and my wife bought a mobile home, and hooked the water up to an existing well that we share with my parents. We needed a booster pump due to the loss in pressure from the almost 200ft run of pex I ran from the well to the house. Without the pressure pump the water pressure is around 30psi. What is included in my water line under the house is a water pressure regulator, into a sediment filter, into a check valve, and then to the pressure booster which is a Truper 1HP booster pump which has a sensor that tells it to turn on when it senses a decrease in pressure.
Now when I first hooked it all up, it was increasing my pressure from 30 all the way to 90, which is obviously to much, so I used my pressure regulator to decrease the pressure to around 55psi with the pump running. Well recently I noticed a decrease in pressure, so I adjusted the regulator to allow around 60 psi and it was good for a few days. Now today the booster pump will only boost to 40 psi, no matter how far I open up the pressure reducer. And the amount of pressure coming from the well without the booster is still the same it was when we moved in. All parts are only 1 year old. And my pressure gauge which attaches to my hose spigot that is connected directly to the booster does not decrease when the water is shut off, so I know there isn't water leaking.
Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Could it be the water pressure regulator is already going out?
Thanks for any info.
