How to check the pressure of a water pump?
Work out what pressure your pump is turning off at ( high pressure) and on at (low pressure) from its pressure switch. Make sure there is no water pressure in the system as this will give you a false reading on the air pressure. Turn the pump off at the switch and shut any taps on your supply.

If water comes gushing out of the hose when you flip on the breaker for the water pump, you know that you’ve got a problem in the fixture. This is actually quite rare. Water fixtures almost never fail “closed,” rather they usually leak badly before completely failing—so it’s unlikely you’ll run into this scenario.
