Don't Risk It: Get Your Well Water Tested For Bacteria

After a storm, especially one that leads to high water levels or flooding, it’s crucial to assess the safety of your well water. Contaminants from surface water can easily seep into your well, compromising the quality and safety of your drinking water. At Mosman Well Works, we strongly recommend conducting a water test for bacteria and other potential contaminants immediately following such events. Our team is also equipped to perform a thorough evaluation of your well system to ensure it’s functioning correctly and to identify any damage that may have occurred during the storm. Don’t take chances with your water—schedule your post-storm well water test and system evaluation today.

  • Why should I test my well water after a storm?

    Storms can lead to flooding, which might cause surface water to enter your well. This can introduce bacteria and other contaminants, making your water unsafe to drink.

  • What kind of tests should be done on my well water after a storm?

    A bacterial test is essential, particularly for coliform bacteria, which indicates contamination. Depending on the situation, additional tests for chemicals and other pathogens may be recommended.

  • How soon after a storm should I have my well water tested?

    It's best to have your well water tested as soon as possible after the storm, especially if there has been significant flooding or if your wellhead was submerged.

  • What does a well system evaluation involve?

    A well system evaluation includes checking the physical condition of the well, the integrity of the well casing, the well cap, and the pumping system to ensure everything is functioning correctly.

  • What should I do if my well water tests positive for bacteria?

    If your well water is contaminated, you should stop using it for drinking or cooking and consult with a water treatment professional immediately. Disinfection of the well may be necessary, and alternative water sources should be used until the well is safe.

A sparking well pump is a common enough occurrence, but it is still a cause for concern. A well pump spark indicates a faulty pressure switch. The pressure switch has mechanical and electrical components, and a defect in these components can lead the switch to spark when the pump cycles on.
