Well Testing & System Inspection
A well flow test is highly recommended any time you are purchasing property. A draw-down flow test will give you the well’s actual yield in gallons per minute. This test is accomplished by measuring the water being pumped while monitoring the level of the water as it drops in the well. When the amount of water entering into the well matches the amount being pumped out, the results are the true yield of the well. Most buyers prefer to have the pumping system inspected during well flow testing. Our inspections include electrical tests for shorts to ground and continuity of the motor windings. In addition, all above ground components are evaluated and written report is submitted at the completion of the job.
Water Potability Tests
Knowing that your water well is free of bacteria and safe to drink and use is of utmost importance. We suggest testing your well water at least once a year to ensure your health and safety. Water potability tests can be obtained through the El Paso County Health Department as well as Barnhart Pump Company. We also offer water sampling services if you do not feel comfortable drawing the sample yourself, or if you want to ensure it is done correctly, as it is easy to contaminate the sample if not done properly.
