Oops! Just got home and realized that I left a hose running all weekend while I was gone. We have well water that uses a submersible pump inline with a steel pressure tank (in basement). We have no running water in the house. I drained the pressure tank and collected ~ 1 gallon of muddy water. I closed all the faucets (and shut off valve to hose) and waited about an hour. The psi went up on the tank but when I opened the drain valve only air came out.
I've since cut power to the system by flipping the breaker. Any suggestions? Have I done longterm damage to the equipment, or does the well just need to recharge? We just moved here and am still learning about the house, I don't know (yet) how deep the well is, etc.
Thanks for your help,
Xuan
