3 Important Water Well Maintenance Tips

Don't take a chance on poisoning your water supply. Store all hazardous chemicals far away from your well. This includes motor oil, paint, pesticides, fertilizer, and industrial cleaners. Moreover, keep plenty of distance between your well and your waste system.

2. Check Your Water Well Cover

Your well cover prevents debris and animals from falling into your water supply, so keep it in good shape. Check it regularly for cracks and tightness. When mowing or doing work around the cap, be careful not to damage it. Keep it free of snow, leaves, and debris. If you have a drilled well, we recommend a two piece sealed and vented sanitary well cap to prevent any insects or mice from entering your well.

3. Schedule an Annual Well Maintenance Inspection  

An annual maintenance inspection from a qualified water well contractor should identify any small issues that need addressing before they become big problems that will threaten your well or pump system. A professional contractor will perform a flow test, check your well tank, test the pump motor, and more.
