SIGNS OF GROUNDWATER WELL GOING DRY
Shallow bored wells are the most common wells to go dry. You can tell if it’s drying by the lack of water well yield. The first thing you should do when you notice any warning signs is measure the water level. There are many factors which decrease the water level including types and depth of the well. In this situation, you should check with your service providers about the possibilities of increasing the water quantity or yield. The life expectancy of a well varies and depends on various factors such as:
Local ground water conditions in your geographical location
Lack of maintenance
Seasonal fluctuations and changes in the aquifer
HOW TO MAINTAIN YOUR WELL TO LAST LONGER?
The lifecycle of a well may depend upon its type of well casing used. PVC casing outlasts steel casing. If you maintain it properly, your groundwater system can last for a long time. Regular inspections and cleaning will help you avoid any problems in the future. Calling professional contractors for this work can save you money and time. However, we do offer a do-it-yourself shock chlorination program to make it even more cost effective for you. You should always remember preventive measures are better than costly repairs. Here are some steps to help you maintain your water well:
Conduct a flow test to find out the level of water
Keep your well cap in good condition
Maintained by licensed professionals
Do not keep hazardous chemicals close to your well
Ensure the top of your well is 16 inches above the surface
Make sure to have some space between your building and water well
Schedule an inspection with the professionals to detect the signs of deterioration or contamination
