How to Increase Water Pressure in Shared Wells

What Is a Shared Well?

A shared well is a well that supplies water to more than one property, whether it’s for irrigation or residential motives. If there are more than four users, then it would be referred to as a community well. It is usually shared to divide the maintenance and installation costs amongst the users.

How to Increase Water Pressure in A Shared Well

If you notice any fluctuation in water pressure at one source when another source is turned on, then you need to install a constant pressure system. This system helps to keep the water pressure steady when multiple faucets are in use at the same time.

Constant pressure systems can also help solve water pressure problems to those who live on the upper floors of an apartment, or for homes whose wells are at longer distances.

You can also increase the pressure by adjusting your pressure tanks. These tanks are equipped with gauges that can signal you the amount of pressure that is flowing through the pipes.

Well Water Treatment

The following are the most common types of shared well water treatment options.

Filtration Systems – water filters are devices that can get rid of impurities from water by using biological processes, chemicals, and physical barriers.
Water Softeners – these devices are used to reduce water hardness. They replace the magnesium and calcium ions (the ions responsible for the hardness) with potassium or sodium ions.
Distillation Systems – here, the contaminated water is heated and the steam condensed and collected in a different container, leaving solid waste behind.
Disinfection – this is a chemical or physical process where pathogenic microorganisms are destroyed or deactivated. Physical disinfectants include heat, electronic radiation, and ultraviolet light. And chemical disinfectants include ozone, chlorine dioxide, and chlorine.
