Summer Well Maintenance Tips
June 22, 2025
Keep Your Well in Top Shape During Hot Months
Summer heat puts extra demand on your well system. Increased outdoor watering, keeping livestock hydrated, and additional household use during vacations or gatherings can strain your water supply if your system isn’t properly maintained. High temperatures and dry spells can also lower your well’s water level, making routine care even more important.
Start by scheduling a mid-year inspection. A professional checkup of your pump, pressure tank, and water levels can catch small issues before they become big problems during peak use. It’s also smart to test your water quality to ensure it’s safe and free from bacteria, especially after heavy summer storms that can wash contaminants into your system.
Keep the area around your wellhead clean and clear. Remove any weeds, debris, or standing water near your well to prevent unwanted runoff from entering your water supply. Make sure the well cap is secure and undamaged—it’s your first line of defense against dirt and insects.
Pay attention to any changes in your water. If you notice that your water looks cloudy, smells unusual, or tastes different, don’t ignore it. These could be signs of contamination or equipment malfunction and should be tested by a professional right away.
Stay proactive this summer. Simple steps like checking for leaks in hoses or irrigation systems and using water wisely around your property can make a big difference in maintaining a steady water supply for your family and animals.
