WELL CAPS
What is a well cap and what does it do?

The well cap is the cover on top of the well casing that sticks out of the ground. It serves many purposes. Most caps, include a vented screen so that the pressure difference between the inside and outside of the well casing may be equalized when water is pumped from the well. However, the cap's main function is to keep contaminants out of the water supply.



A properly sealed well cap protects against all types of contamination. It is the first line of protection against nonpoint source pollution, which constitutes the majority of ground water contamination. Nonpoint source pollution includes runoff of pesticides and herbicides, soil erosion, and elements from the street.

Well caps also keep out insects, which can cause major problems in a well. Bacteria levels can rise from their droppings, and sometimes the bugs themselves can get trapped in the wells, die, and decompose in the well water.

ASK AN EXPERT
Does the well cap make my water safe?

Surface water can encounter many types of pollutants and transport them. These are not always easily detected by taste or smell. A properly sealed well cap is a safeguard in preventing those contaminants from penetrating the household water supply.

Having your well tested is the surest way to determine that the water is safe. Even if your well cap fits tightly on your well and your water tastes fine, the water well system should be given a checkup by a contractor every year.


EDS Pumps & Water Treatment offers an annual Water System Inspection as well as Water Testing to help ensure your well water is safe.
