Well System Inspection Process

System inspections involve thoroughly analyzing different aspects of your well pump. First, above-ground needs to be analyzed for issues. Our inspector will check above-ground pumping components to see if the motors are venting properly. He will need to visually make sure there are no signs of leaks or rust. The above-ground wiring, pipes, gauges, and joint seals will additionally need to be investigated for issues that may lead to problems with leaks or lack of water pressure.

Within the well pump system, inspectors check for the water’s rate of flow in gallons per minute and the maximum pressure output to confirm the water in your pump is flowing properly. At Perry’s Pump Repair, we also investigate if there is an excess of friction loss in the pipes. As a well pump company, we will look at the pressure tank both pre-charge and drawdown. We will also note the quality of the water softeners and conditioners to sustain them in agreement with the instructions of the manufacturer. Finally, the water treatment equipment as well as the quality of the water itself.
