Q: How often do I need to test well water?

• <div><p>The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention <a href="https://www.cdc.gov/healthywater/drinking/private/wells/testing.html">(CDC) recommends testing</a> your well at least once a year to check for bacteria and contaminants. If you live in an area prone to flooding, runoff, or any other environmental concerns, it can be a good idea to check two to three times per year.</p></div>

Q: What are other ways I can increase water pressure?

• <div><p>There are other ways to increase well water pressure. You can often increase the pressure by adjusting the valve on your pressure tank. The pressure issue may be the result of build-up along the pipes or a clog in the system, so descaling and unclogging your system can help improve the overall pressure.</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>

Q: How long can a deep well pump run continuously?

• <div><p>Most professionals recommend that a deep well pump shouldn&rsquo;t run more than 10 hours consecutively before cycling off. Overworking the well pump beyond the recommended amount can prematurely wear out your pump and burn out the motor, which means replacing it more often than you otherwise should need to. Your well pump should also come with the manufacturer&rsquo;s use and maintenance recommendations that are specific to the model.</p></div>

Q: How do you know if your well pipes are frozen?

• <div><p>Frozen well pipes make themselves known quickly, as your faucets slow down to a trickle or shut down completely. If you notice a serious reduction in flow in the winter from toilets, showers, kitchen faucets, and other plumbing fixtures, a frozen pipe or two is to blame. Another tell-tale sign is frost or ice on exposed pipes outside. </p></div>
