    For a couple weeks I have had problems with fluctuating water pressure. Its all faucets and happens at all times of the day. I am on well water and have a whole house filter which I have changed and then bypassed and am still having issues. Any Ideas??
    thanks

    There is a pressure control that kicks the pump on and off which may be failing. It is a relatively easy replacement for someone with electical/plumbing skills.

    This is what it should look like :

    And this site shows some installation views:

    Over the years, I have had to have my pressure switch replaced a couple times and also my holding tank once. The total replacement including the switch last time was $150 and was within the last year.
