How do you know your Well has a Problem?

• Water flow or pressure seems low

• Water looks cloudy or discolored

• Strange taste or odor in your water

• Pump making unusual noises

• Pump turns on and off too often

• Leaks or standing water near your well

Regular water tests are a good idea, but even clean Wells can conceal potential problems.

Threats include cracks in the casing, dead critters in the water, Wells located in low lying, flood prone areas, or a recessed Well pit, common with older drilled Wells.

In the latter scenario, the Well casing usually stops below ground, in the pit; so if surface water floods the pit, it can overflow the top of the casing and carry contaminants into the Well.

To get a better idea of what your Well needs, contact a Licensed Well Contractor such as Burlington Water Tech.
