After a flood, the owners of household wells should take certain precautions to
make sure their water is safe and their well is in good operating condition.
An obvious concern is that flood water loaded with bacteria, chemicals or other pollutants may have gotten into the well. A less obvious concern is electrical shock if a non-submersible pump or any part of the well electrical system is flooded.

At the heart of each water well system is a pump, and the most common types are jet pumps and submersible pumps.

Having a water well allows homeowners to control their own water supply. Ownership also comes with the responsibility of keeping the water well in good working order. When was the last time your water well equipment was inspected or your water tested for quality?
The National Ground Water Association (NGWA) recommends routine annual well water maintenance checks to ensure the proper operation. This prolongs the years of service and monitors the water quality.

What You Need to Know
Prior to selecting a water well contractor for a job, it is a good idea to obtain information about several contractors in the area before making a choice.
It is important to obtain a written contract when preparing to have a well constructed. Unless you know what each contractor will do for his specified price, you cannot compare offers and decide which one to hire. NGWA makes available standard contract forms to its members.

There are many ways for well owners to protect their water quality. Two of the most important are to make sure your well is properly sealed and properly abandon any non-usable wells on your property.
If an active water well is not properly sealed or if an abandoned well is not properly plugged, it can create a path for contamination. Cap it, plug it!
