When you install a new water well on your property, your contractor will test to ensure everything is working correctly and that the water quality is safe for consumption. However, over time, conditions can change. You need regular water well maintenance and testing at least once a year to keep your water quality high and your equipment working correctly.

Why Schedule Water Well Maintenance

1. Identify & Prevent Water Contamination

An exposed well or incautious use of chemicals on your property can lead to contamination that will affect not just your well, but the groundwater in the area. Fertilizer and pesticide should be kept away from both the well and any areas around it. If you're worried the water may have been contaminated or you need to ensure the way you're using chemicals on your property is safe, call a professional

2. Check the Plumbing

Just like the plumbing inside your home, the pipes that carry water from your well are subject to corrosion and leaks. A professional will examine the pipes and seal any areas where water is escaping. Not only will this help keep water pressure high in your home, but it'll also prevent water damage to your property.

3. Inspect the Water Well Pump

Your well pump may be located deep inside the well, or it may be placed at the surface, depending on the model you've chosen. Each needs to be inspected regularly to clean the filters, ensure the settings and pressure are correct, and check for any debris or clogs that could put extra strain on the equipment and wear it out faster. Scheduling regular pump maintenance will extend the life of the pump, saving you money on replacements.
