Q: Can I replace my well pump myself?

• <div><p>No. Well pump replacement is not recommended as a DIY project, particularly if you have a deep well and a submersible pump. Plumbing and electricity are best left to the pros, especially when something like your well pump includes both. Even when troubleshooting your pump, it pays to have a partner standing by for your assistance and safety.</p></div>

Q: What steps should I take to ensure my well pump operates efficiently year-round?

• <div><p>Schedule annual inspections, test water pressure, and protect the pump from freezing temperatures.</p></div>

Q: What do I do if my well pump gets stuck?

• <div><p>If your well pump gets stuck in its casing, you may be able to free it loose by gently wiggling the line or by vibrations from tapping the line with a hammer. However, if your pump is stuck in a buildup of minerals around the casing, you&rsquo;ll probably have to call in a well pump contractor to get it out. They&rsquo;ll likely use a muriatic acid solution&mdash;a strong, corrosive acid&mdash;to break down the minerals and free the pump loose. </p><p>To avoid a stuck pump in the future, experts recommend a professional well cleaning once every 10 years. </p></div>

Q: Who should I hire to fix my well?

• <div><p>If you have a well-related issue, such as your well water stopping, you should hire a local water well contractor or a well and pump repair professional. These specialists handle all aspects of wells, including the pump, tank, and other outdoor water pumping equipment. They can inspect your system, recommend and perform repairs, and even coordinate a water quality test if needed. While plumbers are experts in indoor plumbing, they may not have the specialized experience with residential wells that a dedicated well contractor does.</p></div>

Q: When should I replace my well pump?

• <div><p>Consider replacement if the pump is over 10 years old or has recurring, costly issues.</p></div>

"Well, the first time the replacement was ordered it was the wrong one, which of course, delayed the installation a week. When it was finally installed I had to pay an additional $850 for code upgrades. This I was not informed of by Home Shield. Then we noticed that there was water on the garage floor and found that the pipe coming in from the wall was leaking at the wall so had to call the plumbing company back out to fix it. They first tried to say it was not their fault but since there wasn't a leak before they installed they did fix it. I have used Home Shield a few times before and never had a problem. Some of the companies they use are not the best so you have to research them before you commit. I have found HS service to be good if you do your homework. At the end of the day I was without hot water for almost 3 weeks but it was do to the plumbing company they sent out."
