Is there Arsenic in the water in Arlington?

Some water wells in Arlington do have arsenic in them. The presence of Arsenic varies greatly well by well. In fact, our company worked on two wells, located not more than 40 feet apart, one of which had arsenic in the water, the other did not – both wells were exactly the same depth and had water levels that changed based on the pumping rates in the other well. We have successfully organized the engineering, installation, and operation of minor & major water treatment systems for removing arsenic from residential water supplies.

Arlington – Well Pump Repair Contractor

Well systems in Arlington are made up of at least three major components – the well, the well pump, and the pressure tank. Any breakdown in the combination of these three components, and you’ll be out of water. If this happens, call us today to get you back up and running.

The well pump is often a submersible style pump, made by Goulds, Sta-Rite, Flint & Walling, Grundfos, Franklin Electric, or Jacuzzi (amongst others), located at or near the bottom of the well. Additionally, some wells have what are known as Jet Pumps or Double Jets, which are suction style pumps located at the surface – these systems often suffer from a ‘loss of prime’, where the suction system gets air in it and can’t create a vacuum to get the water going.

Pressure tanks deliver a pre-charged supply of water to the home for peak usage, but also provide for pump run time so that the motor cools properly. If your tank springs a leak in the diaphragm internally, or otherwise loses it’s charge of air pressure, your pump will begin rapid cycling, and will eventually burn out. All pressure tanks should be checked once per year for adequate pre-charge – please email service@jkawelldrilling.com today for a free brochure on pressure tank maintenance.

If any of the above systems are faulty, unusually noisy, or leaking, please call today and schedule a well service appointment with our professional well pump technicians.

Arlington – Well Inspections & Water Testing

Are you buying or selling a home in Arlington? Is there a well at this home? Most home inspectors rarely see wells, and less have the breadth of knowledge to really know how the wells work or if their in satisfactory condition. Book a well inspection with JKA Well Drilling & Pumps today, and we can provide a flow test, a written report, arsenic, bacteria, & nitrates testing, and a walk through of the whole water system (some exceptions for filters/treatment systems apply, please ask for details).
