Complete Well Inspections for Existing Homes and New Construction
Bohs Well Drilling provides complete well and water system inspections for existing homes or new construction. We can let you know the condition of your well, how many gallons per minute it is producing, and the state of your well pump and storage tank. We can also check to ensure the well provides you and your family with the cleanest water. Well inspections are highly suggested when purchasing a new property or selling your home. To ensure the well is in top working condition, have your real estate agent call us to schedule a well inspection.
Why is a Well Inspection Important?
Owning a private household-supply water well allows homeowners to control their water supply. Ownership also comes with keeping the water well in good working order. The National Ground Water Association recommends routine annual inspections to ensure the proper operation of the well and monitor the water quality. Bohs Well Drilling provides inspection and testing that can help ensure your well is operating properly, prolong its useful life, and protect your investment. Our inspections can also protect your health by discovering issues that could result in water quality problems presenting a health risk.
What Does Our Inspection Include?
We are fully licensed and certified to perform complete water well system inspections and testing. Our inspections include:
- A flow test to determine system output, a check of the water level before and during pumping (if possible), pump motor performance (check amp load, grounding, and line voltage), and pressure tank and pressure switch contact.
- An inspection of well equipment to assure that it is sanitary and meets local code requirements.
- A test of your water for coliform bacteria and nitrates, and anything else of local concern. Other typical additional tests are iron, manganese, water hardness, sulfides, and other water constituents that cause problems with plumbing, staining, water appearance, and odor.
- A concise, clear, written report following the checkup that explains results, recommendations, and all laboratory and other test results.
