If you’re a homeowner, you’re probably used to scheduling maintenance checks for home appliances such as HVAC units, sprinkler systems, and plumbing. If you have a well on your property, you’ll also need to maintain it, but you may wonder when to schedule well inspection. The following are some signs that you should call the professionals.

Why Should You Schedule a Well Inspection?

1. Discoloration

Variations in water color can be alarming. While it could be harmless — if your water is pink, for example, it’s still deemed safe to drink — it could also be a sign of contamination. It’s never worth taking a chance with your health. Locate the nearest water testing lab to your property and call to either schedule a water analysis pick-up or how you can obtain the correct bottles and bring the sample down to the lab. 

2. Low Water Pressure

Low water pressure is often linked to an issue with your well. You may have a leaky pressure tank, a failing pump, or a multitude of other minor issues that happen within a complex well system. 

3. Air Coming Out of Faucets

While there may be a simple enough explanation for air in your faucet — such as sediment in the check valve either located on top of the pump or at the pressure tank, getting a blast of air is never pleasant when you turn your faucet on. Call for service to correct the problem,
