Although your family has room to spread out in a rural setting, it may mean you have limited access to municipal services. By installing a residential water well, your family will always have access to fresh, delicious water sourced from the groundwater under the property. If you’re on the fence about installing a private well, below are additional reasons that a home water system is a sound investment.   

3 Gains From Residential Water Well Installation

1. Convenience

When it’s sourced from the city, there’s no guaranteeing you’ll always have access to water. From boil advisory notices to ruptured pipes and broken mains, there are several factors beyond your control that impact if water can be distributed to your area and its quality when it gets there. As a private well owner, you won’t experience the service delays and additional inconveniences associated with city water. It’s your responsibility to maintain the well pump and additional components and routinely test the water for impurities.

2. Utility Savings

City water isn’t free, and the more you use, the higher the cost. This is especially problematic in homes where daily habits or plumbing inefficiencies lead to high water consumption. The groundwater pumped into your well is completely free regardless of how much or how little is used. Eliminating this utility cost will reduce the financial strain of maintaining your home.   

3. Resale Value Increase

Installing a water well now will be beneficial if you ever decide to move. Apart from properties free of structural problems, house hunters are also on the lookout for features that will keep homeowner costs low. Having access to free, pure water for cooking and bathing is something they will find appealing. Many potential buyers are willing to pay more for properties with private, well-maintained water wells, so you may get better offers than you would without one.
