FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What does a softstarter do for my well pump?
A soft starter helps your pump start smoothly instead of with a hard jolt. It controls the power flow when your pump turns on, which helps stop breaker trips, water hammer, and motor wear. This means less stress on your pump and a longer life for your system.
Will this soft starter work with my generator?
Yes! This soft starter is designed to work with backup or portable generators. It lowers the startup power surge, so your generator doesn’t overload or shut down. It’s ideal for any home on well water.
Do I need an electrician to install it?
It’s a VERY easy connection, but we recommend consulting a qualified electrician for safety and electrical code requirements. The soft starter connects with basic line-in and line-out wiring and comes with clear instructions. Installations take about 20 minutes once wiring is ready!
How does it protect my pump and electrical system over time?
A soft starter eases your pump up to speed, instead of slamming it with full power. This cuts down on wear and tear, prevents pipe damage, and keeps your motor from burning out. Over time, that means fewer repairs and lower power bills.
What size soft starter do I need for my well pump?
This soft starter is designed to work with all 240V well pumps up to 3.5 HP and all 120V pumps up to 2 HP. That includes submersible, jet, and booster pumps.
What’s the difference between a soft starter and a VFD (Variable Frequency Drive)?
What’s the difference between a soft starter and a VFD (Variable Frequency Drive)?
A soft starter is designed to reduce the electrical surge and mechanical shock that happens when a motor starts. It gradually increases voltage, letting the pump ramp up smoothly before running at full speed. Once the motor is running, the soft starter simply passes power through, it doesn’t control speed.
A VFD (Variable Frequency Drive), on the other hand, controls both the voltage and the frequency of the power going to the motor. This means it can adjust the pump’s speed and pressure continuously during operation, not just at startup. Because a VFD already includes built-in soft-start and soft-stop functions, you do not need a separate soft starter when using one.
Simply put - if you have a VFD controller on your well pump, you do not need a soft starter.

YOU DON'T NEED TO HOPE FOR THE BEST WHEN YOU'RE PREPARED FOR THE WORST.
When the power goes out, keeping water flowing is vital. A well pump soft starter reduces the heavy surge that normally overloads small and mid-sized generators, turning backup power into a reliable water supply. This simple upgrade means you can have peace of mind that your toilets will flush, showers run, and drinking water stays available. Whether you’re preparing for extended power outages or simply ensuring your well pump enjoys a nice, long life - a Softstart Well Pump is the easiest upgrade to secure you water supply.
