Getting sand in a well can cause problems. In addition to being an unpleasant surprise in the water you use at home, it also can harm your well. Sand can wear down your pump and can clog pipes. As a result, it is important to keep sand from being pumped out of your well.
There are many different reasons why sand can get into your well water. Here are some of the most common:
If you notice sand in your well, your first step is to call a professional well contractor. They can figure out the problem and come up with options to fix your well.
Depending on the problem, there are several different options to repair your well. In some cases, you can move or replace your pump. You may need larger repairs, such as adding a new well screen. Rare cases, the problem cannot be repaired and a new well will need to be dug.

In addition to repairing your well, you can also filter sand out of well water. Centrifugal sand separators and spin-down filters are devices that will filter sand out of well water after it is pumped out of the ground.
