your own well, when is the last time it was tested?
Where can you go for help or advice?
We have discovered a new helpful pamphlet that gives you general information about drinking water from
home wells also considered private drinking water
sources. It describes types of activities in your area
that can create threats to your water supply. It also
describes problems to look for and offers maintenance
suggestions. Sources for more information and help
are also listed.

All of us need clean water to drink, in fact 85% of
our bodies are composed of water! We can
go weeks without food, but only days without water. And contaminated water can be a threat to anyone’s
health, but especially to young children.
About 15% of Americans have their own source
of drinking water, such as wells, cisterns, and springs. Unlike public drinking water systems serving many people, they do not have experts regularly checking the water source and its quality before it is sent through pipes to your home.
To help protect families with their own well, almost all states license or register water-well installers. Most also have construction standards for home wells. In addition, some city and county health departments have local rules and permitting. All this helps make sure the well is built properly. But what about checking to see that it is working correctly and the water is always healthy to drink? That is the job of the home owner, and it takes some work and knowledge.
