How to Troubleshoot Air in Your Well Water: What It Means and What to Do

23 May How to Troubleshoot Air in Your Well Water: What It Means and What to Do

If your faucets are sputtering or your water looks cloudy, you may have air in your well system.

This common issue affects many homes in Twin Falls, Kimberly, and Filer, especially in spring when systems are coming off lower winter usage. Fortunately, most causes are easy to identify—and fix with help from Pump Service Idaho.

Common causes of air in your well water include:

• A failing pressure tank bladder, which causes air to mix with the water.

• Leaking pipes in the drop line or suction line.

• Low water levels, especially in shallow wells near Castleford or Wendell.

• Cracks in the well casing or connections, allowing air to enter.

Signs of air in your system may include spurting faucets, hissing noises, or milky-colored water that clears after a few seconds. These symptoms are not only annoying but may indicate deeper issues that can damage your pump over time.
