Given the age and condition of this tank the customer chose to proactively replace it. Experience has shown that the pressure tank is the most important component of your water well system. The tank protects your pump from short cycling, running hot and premature failure. Always get the largest tank you can afford and will fit into the available space. Contact us today to have your system checked.

Here is a "frost-free" hose bib. That was split inside the wall. When a hose is left connected during freezing temperatures, the eater expands and bursts the pipe resulting in water leaking into the foundation wall when the bibb is turned on.

MWP now offers "freeze-proof" hose bibbs that have an internal component designed to prevent this issue and have a 5-year warranty. Give us a call to upgrade yours today.

This well is being tested for surface water intrusion. As you can see, the water outside on the ground is entering through the water line sleeve. This could put your water at risk of bacterial contamination and present potential health concerns for those consuming the water.
