How to Care for Your Water Pump

Your home’s plumbing depends on a working water pump. Therefore, you want to take good care of it so it can stay in good condition. The last thing you want is to go to the faucet or step in the shower only to discover you have no running wanter. To keep your water pump in good shape, consider these tips from our crew at Ackerson Pump Company.

1. Start with a quality pump.

If your water pump has seen better days or if it’s sub-par, you may want to consider replacing it with a reliable and durable one. At Ackerson Pump, we can assess your home’s needs and suggest a quality water pump that will give you peace of mind for years to come. Plus, our team can expertly install it so you can be off to a good start.

2. Don’t ignore the warning signs.

Suddenly, you notice that your water isn’t running with the force it once was, or perhaps it’s coming out of the faucet a bit discolored. Either way, you know something is different. Instead of shrugging your shoulders at those warning signs, call a professional. You could be dealing with a water pump or well issue that you don’t want to ignore. The longer you wait, the worse it could get.

3. Schedule regular maintenance.

Your best line of defense for keeping your water pump in top condition is to have it serviced regularly by a professional. The National Ground Water Association recommends that you get an inspection of your overall well system each year to make sure everything is functioning as it should.

For homeowners in Sussex, Bergen, or Morris County, NJ, you can rely on Ackerson Pump Company to help keep your water pump running well. We specialize in water pumps, well inspections, water tanks, and more. To find out more about us or to check out our current specials, contact us anytime at (973) 827-6088.
