Installing a new well on your property is the perfect way to ensure you have a clean, consistent supply of water. For the feature to continue working properly, however, it needs periodic maintenance. This includes water testing and, occasionally, cleaning. The latter task should be performed whenever you notice any of the following three signs.

What Are Some Indications Your New Well Needs Cleaning?

1. High Utility Bills

A well that's working correctly shouldn't significantly impact your electric bill, so if you notice your monthly costs have gone up and can't seem to pinpoint the culprit, you may want to call a well cleaning professional. There is likely a clog somewhere in the pumping system that is forcing the components to work harder to send water to your home.

2. Dirty Water

If it's cloudy, rust-colored, or odd-tasting, stop using it and contact an expert for help right away. Some part of the well is either broken or dirty and is affecting the quality of the H2O you're getting at home.

3. Inconsistent Water Flow

Have you noticed low or inconsistent water pressure and sputtering faucets? There could be a buildup of sediment in the lines leading from your home to the well. A simple cleaning will solve the issue and restore a steady stream of H2O to your home.
