Over the past weekend we inadvertantly drained the water tank dry. We refilled the tank, turned the water pump back on and...nothing. I can hear the pump running but no water. Before I call on the local repair guys does any one have any suggestions?

Thanks,
 
the line to the pump from the tank is air bound not a big deal and certainly not dumb, dumb, dumb. Open the line at the pump and let some water flow then reconnect.
I could tell you what really dumb things to do are but i wouldn’t want to give you any new ideas.
 
Usually if you open a faucet to bleed off the air, the pump will prime itself.
 
Thanks guys. I've tried leaving a faucet open to bleed off the air but perhaps have not given it enough time, Willie. If that doesn't work then I'll open the line at the pump.

All the best,
