It is also recommended to have the water flow checked by a professional.<\/p>\n<h3>Why Well Water Testing is an Important Part of the Home Inspection<\/h3>\n<p>Water well testing is important to ensure that drinking water is of the highest quality. Well water is often vulnerable to higher levels of iron, as well as water hardness and sulfides.<\/p>\n<p>There could be other issues that lead to plumbing issues, water stains, and pungent odors coming from your water source. You should not drink it, bathe in it or water plants if the water is harmful to your safety.<\/p>\n<p>The inspector tells you everything you need to know about the structural integrity of the house, as well as the health of the plumbing, HVAC and electrical systems. What a home inspection never covers, however, is the health of a residence&#8217;s water well.<\/p>\n<p>To do this, you need to contact an experienced professional who understands water wells and knows what to look for.<\/p>\n<h3>What is well water analysis?<\/h3>\n<p>The first thing a water well inspector does is examine the system for any potential problems that could lead to contamination.<\/p>\n<p>It also takes water samples and tests them for bacteria, chemicals and any other harmful particles that may be present.<\/p>\n<p>If there are harmful chemicals and\/or contaminants in your home&#8217;s water supply, don&#8217;t drink it, bathe in it or water your plants.<\/p>\n<p>Once testing is complete, you will receive a comprehensive report detailing any issues that could affect your buyer&#8217;s interest in the home.<\/p>\n<p>If there are major problems, we can also repair or replace water well components or entire systems. You should never have to worry about water quality in a new home.<\/p>\n<h3>For real estate agents<\/h3>\n<p>Make sure water well testing is always part of any inspection of homes your clients are interested in purchasing.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/pompemdg.com\/en\/contact-us\/\">Contact us<\/a> to schedule an inspection of your well, pump, tank and other components before you buy a home.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t<div id=\"accordion-2668254866\" class=\"accordion-item\">\n\t\t<a id=\"accordion-2668254866-label\" class=\"accordion-title plain\" href=\"#accordion-item-which-pumps-does-pompe-mdg-recommend?\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"accordion-2668254866-content\">\n\t\t\t<button class=\"toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle\"><i class=\"icon-angle-down\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/button>\n\t\t\t<span>Which pumps does Pompe MDG recommend?<\/span>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<div id=\"accordion-2668254866-content\" class=\"accordion-inner\" aria-labelledby=\"accordion-2668254866-label\">\n\t\t\t\n<p>We install submersible pumps from Flint &amp; Walling, because they are efficient and durable, compared to other brands we know.

The start and stop pressures of the switch can be adjusted if certain applications require it. For example, if the start pressure is 40 psi and the stop is 60 psi, there will be a difference of 20 psi.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t<div id=\"accordion-3053820749\" class=\"accordion-item\">\n\t\t<a id=\"accordion-3053820749-label\" class=\"accordion-title plain\" href=\"#accordion-item-how-to-prime-a-pressure-switch\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"accordion-3053820749-content\">\n\t\t\t<button class=\"toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle\"><i class=\"icon-angle-down\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/button>\n\t\t\t<span>How to prime a pressure switch<\/span>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<div id=\"accordion-3053820749-content\" class=\"accordion-inner\" aria-labelledby=\"accordion-3053820749-label\">\n\t\t\t\n<ol class=\"astuces-counter\">\n<li><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-18940 alignright\" style=\"color: #555555;\" src=\"https:\/\/pompemdg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/pressostat-bas-niveau-etapes-PompeMDG.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"357\" height=\"296\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pompemdg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/pressostat-bas-niveau-etapes-PompeMDG.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/pompemdg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/pressostat-bas-niveau-etapes-PompeMDG-300x248.jpg 300w, https:\/\/pompemdg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/pressostat-bas-niveau-etapes-PompeMDG-800x663.jpg 800w, https:\/\/pompemdg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/pressostat-bas-niveau-etapes-PompeMDG-768x636.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 357px) 100vw, 357px\" \/>Start by closing your main valve located at the outlet of the pressure tank. <\/li>\n<li>Then operate the small arm by pushing it upwards (position 2 in photo).
