Well Cleaning
A well should be cleaned every *3-4 years.
Some wells need cleaning more than others, depending on the type of water your pump is pulling.
As time goes on the well screen will start to clog up which will result in a loss of pressure. A well cleaning can fix this issue & restore pressure.
Jet Pumps use a deeper well.
At the bottom of the drop pipe there is what is called a jet package or foot valve
When your jet package starts to clog up it will need to be replaced along with a well cleaning to get any access debris out of the well. You will notice a loss of pressure and your pump will begin losing it's prime.
This pump housing is full of minerals that build up over time which can cause a pressure decrease in the housing.
Jet package (foot) that is very dirty and in need of a replacement.
This part has to be removed in order to clean the well screen.
This is a STA-RITE centrifugal pump getting a much needed well cleaning.
There are a few steps to cleaning a well such as
*Adding NU-WELL to remove residue and debris from the well.
*Using a gas powered pump to draw out the dirty water
*Priming the pump and letting the system purge that way for a few days.
