Well Inspections:

PIE does not perform well inspections, however we can provide guidance and referrals on these inspections.

If the property has a well consider the following inspections:

  • Water quality testing
  • Electro-mechanical equipment evaluation
  • Well Flow Recovery Rate

    • Forty-seven percent of the United States depend on ground water for their basic drinking water supply. Having a basic understanding about ground water quality will help ensure that your well is supplying potable water for your household.

    The National Ground Water Association recommends that owners of private water wells get their water tested annually for the presence of coliform bacteria, nitrates, and anything else of local concern as part of an annual well maintenance checkup. Contact your water well contractor, state department of natural resources, or local health department for information on local water quality issues. You can also learn about local ground water conditions in your state by viewing state fact sheets from the Ground Water Protection Council.
