Default Re: Wells

David; Do you ever make any recommendations regarding wells, I was wondering if this should be added to my report. Say the home has a water softening system, you wouldn't do a water test but what about the condition of the pump and main water line. I was just wondering if it's worth suggesting for further inspection by a pump comp.

I try not to pass off many components to other contractors if the components are in visibly good condition and in good working order.

95% of my well water clients pay for my optional water testing. If they don't, they sign a waiver stating that they declined my water test.

I get them their water quality results within two days of drawing the water. The Pressure and GPM are given by word of mouth and not noted in my report.

I do have a section in my 64-page manual (that every client gets in thier report) and on my web site that'll detail all well water information.
