Well Pump and Pressure Tank Installation
Building a new home and need a well pump installed, so your family has access to safe, clean drinking water? Installing a well pump usually means choosing between a jet pump or a submersible pump. A certified technician can discuss these options with you, explaining in detail why a particular option is best for your new home’s location.
Types of Well Pumps
Most well water systems are made up of
- a pumping unit that raises water from your underground well, and
- a storage tank that holds the water until you need it.
There are many different types and sizes of residential well pumps, so it’s important that you discuss the best option for your home with a professional. He or she can walk you through important factors such as the size of your home, the number of plumbing fixtures and your family’s peak water demands. The most common type of well pump is a submersible pump. Submersible well pumps are designed to operate below ground and push water to the surface, or into a storage tank.
