A well inspection is a process that evaluates the condition and functionality of a well and its components to ensure safety and compliance with regulations. It is typically performed by a licensed professional such as a well inspector or water well contractor, who will examine the well’s structural integrity, water flow, pressure, and quality, as well as the condition of pump and other components, check against regulations and provide a written report. Regular well inspections are important to ensure the well is providing safe drinking water and to identify and address potential problems.
