Water Well Recovery Tips in an Emergency Situation
Emergencies, such as power outages and flooding, can threaten the quality of drinking water from your water well system. We’re here to offer guidance and tips for water well recovery in emergency situations.
Initial Steps to Take for Well Water Recovery
1. Do Not Panic
The first step may sound simple, but it’s crucial – do not panic. Water issues can seem overwhelming, but with the right approach and expert assistance, they can be resolved.
2. Identify the Problem
Try to identify the problem without tampering with your well system. Signs of issues can include unusual noises from the pump, no water at the taps, discolored water, or changes in water pressure.
3. Turn Off the Power to the Pump
If you suspect an issue with your well, turn off the power to the pump to avoid further damage. This precautionary measure can save you from more extensive repairs or replacements down the line.
4. Check the Breaker Box
Sometimes, the issue can be as simple as a tripped circuit breaker. Check your breaker box to ensure the switch for the well pump is in the correct position.
