Upstate NY & NE PA well maintenance

Inspecting the water level and conducting yield testing helps us understand the well’s health and capacity. Measuring water levels detects changes in the aquifer’s performance, and yield testing determines the rate at which your well is producing water.

During the water level test, our technicians measure the water level with a specialized indicator and compare any historical data to detect any significant water fluctuations. The yield test is performed by running water and measuring flow rate, pump cycling, and volume produced.

Faulty pumps, damaged wiring, or malfunctioning pressure controls can lead to system failure or even electrical hazards. To avoid personal injury and potential damage, never attempt to repair these components on your own.

During a professional well maintenance visit, our technicians will:

• Inspect pumps for proper operation and signs of wear or damage
• Check electrical wiring, capacitors, torque arrestors, and pressure switches
• Examine pressure tanks, pressure gauges, valves, pitless adapters, and pipe fittings for leaks or malfunctions

Contaminated water can carry harmful bacteria, chemicals, and other pollutants that can cause serious illnesses. Regular water testing is essential for wells, as harmful contaminants can be present even if the water looks and smells fine. The Health Department and EPA suggest yearly water testing of your water supply to ensure safety.

After completing other well maintenance tasks, our professional well technicians can perform water quality testing for:

• Bacteria, including total coliform and E. coli
• Nitrates, sodium, and other contaminants
• Changes in water taste, odor, color, or clarity
• Radon, arsenic, lead, copper, PFOA / PFAS, and more depending on the level of testing you want

Hiring licensed and experienced contractors like Amber Water Pros for annual well maintenance and inspection means trustworthy results for your investment and zero stress on your end.
