Private Water System Plumbing in Kawartha Lakes & Peterborough
Well Pump and Pressure Tank Plumbing in Kawartha Lakes & Peterborough, ON
Private water systems depend on pumps, pressure tanks, controls, shutoffs, and interior plumbing all working together. When pressure drops, the pump keeps running, or the property loses water entirely, the problem needs troubleshooting that accounts for the whole system. Boxall Plumbing & Drains provides plumbing-side service for well pumps and pressure tanks across Kawartha Lakes, Peterborough, and nearby privately serviced properties.
Low pressure and no-water calls on private systems can come from multiple causes. The best path is to troubleshoot the pump, pressure tank, controls, and connected plumbing together so the root issue is not missed.

Well Pump and Pressure Tank Service for Private-Water Properties
Properties on private water need plumbing service that takes the well pump, pressure tank, shutoffs, filters, water-heating equipment, and indoor distribution plumbing into account together. A symptom like pressure loss or short-cycling rarely tells the full story by itself.
That matters across Kawartha Lakes, Buckhorn, Lakefield, and other nearby areas where cottages, waterfront homes, and rural properties may depend on private water systems year-round or seasonally.

Well Pump and Pressure Tank FAQs
Why does my well pump keep running?
A pump that keeps running can point to a failing pressure tank, a pressure-switch problem, a leak in the system, a blocked filter, or a problem with the water supply itself.
How do I know if my pressure tank is failing?
Pressure swings, short-cycling, weak water delivery, and a pump that turns on too often are common signs the pressure tank or its related controls may not be working properly.
