YOUR WELL WATER COULD BE AT RISK IN THE FALL

You are here: Home / Water Contamination / YOUR WELL WATER COULD BE AT RISK IN THE FALL

October 18, 2022 by EPA Water Consultants

If you have well water, it is important to be aware of a potential problem you may have in the fall. As leaves fall and spent foliage dries in the autumn months, a blanket of organic debris accumulates and covers the ground. This not only means extra chores for you to do, it can also create a cause for concern with your water.

The Problem with Organic Debris and Well Water

The organic debris, or leaf litter as it is often called, not only collects in yards, but in creeks, ponds, and storm drains. If the leaf litter has a chance to decompose, it can be beneficial by adding nutrients to the soil. However, if heavy rains occur, the debris can wash  into nearby water sources before it has a chance to break down. This in turn creates stagnation, flooding, excessive runoff water, and eventually can cause contamination in water supplies, including wells.

Ways to Make Sure Your Well is Protected

A good first line of defense for protecting your well is considering the way you manage your yard waste. Instead of blowing or raking leaves around the perimeter of the yard, mulch leaf litter or bag it up for disposal. Remember, the area around your well should always be free and clear of organic matter and debris. It is also important to make sure your well cap is properly sealed and has no cracks or damage. Keeping the opening of your well intact is essential for preventing exposing your water to the elements.

How to Assure the Quality of Your Water

Well water is susceptible to a variety of contaminants, beyond leaf litter, including chlorine and lead. Minerals such as calcium, magnesium, and iron are also common in well water, and could also have an adverse impact on the quality of your home’s water. Having your water tested is essential in determining what’s in your water and the most effective way to treat it.

No matter what the season, the best way to assure the quality of your well water is with a reliable water filtration system. Fully customizable and precision designed, the Hague WaterMax is user-friendly and provides you with fresh, softened, and filtered water from every tap in your home, every time.
