How often should a well pump be serviced?

• <div><p>Ideally, you should conduct a mechanical inspection and a bacterial or <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/well-inspection-checklist.htm">well water inspection</a> yearly. While you might be able to push it off to every other year, it’s best to have peace of mind, especially when it comes to something that you use so frequently. </p><p>If you experience repeated gastrointestinal illness in the household, it's important to test the well water more regularly for quality and cleanliness to check for bacteria.</p></div>

What are the signs that a well pump is going out?

• <div><p>Here are some <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/signs-you-may-need-new-well-pump.htm">signs of a bad well pump</a> that a pro should look at: </p><ul><li><p>If your well pump isn’t pumping water, you could have a leak or malfunctioning pump on your hands. </p></li><li><p>If your water pump runs nonstop, there might be a leak or problem with the pressure tank, which can cause the pump to fail. </p></li><li><p>Low water pressure can happen because of your pressure tank, low-water levels, or a wrong-sized pump. </p></li><li><p>Dirt or sediment in your water can be a problem with a powerful pump, damaged pump filter, or the pump’s location.</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: What maintenance do experts suggest for well pumps?

• <div><p>Regular checks of pressure tanks, testing water quality, and cleaning intake screens.</p></div>

Q: Is it better to have 30/50 psi or 40/60 psi for a well pump?

• <div><p>For the most part, choosing between 30/50 psi and 40/60 psi is based on your water-pressure preference. However, it can also depend a little bit on your house&mdash;if you have older plumbing, a lower water pressure can be easier on the pipes (and a bit more gentle on your well pump). </p><p>The lower 30/50 pressure is usually enough for a single-story home, but you may want 40/60 if you have multiple stories, as the extra pressure helps water flow smoothly up to the second floor.</p></div>

Q: How do I clean the water pump filter?

• <div><p>If you have a self-cleaning washing machine but you&rsquo;re still seeing lint, your water pump filter might be clogged. To clean it, you should unscrew the drain hose, then remove the water pump filter. From there, you can inspect it and clean it with warm water before replacing it. Check to be sure your washing machine is functioning by running a short cycle. </p></div>

I bought this house in June. It is my first. The previous owners put in a sprinkler system right before closing, but then failed to provide me with any outline, manual, directions, etc. I had no idea about winterization. So, after this particularly wicked recent winter, it is no surprise...

"We were having a lot of air in our well system. Causing the water to spit and sputter when we turned on the tap inside. They came out quickly and fixed the problem. It’s been a couple weeks now and it’s been so nice not having to go manually purge the air from our tank! Kind and courteous and highly recommend them. We are having them come back to install a water treatment light into our system next."
