 My Well Manager Story:
I had been experiencing some air in the water and my whole-house water filter was becoming excessively dirty quickly.  Other subtle symptoms were low pressure and inconsistent increases in my electric bill.  Until the day I ended up with no water, I did not know how all of these were indicating a serious well problem. In fact so serious that I found out that my water level was below the pump by the time I had it measured.  I had no other choice except to drill a new well.  Had I been able to get a 1/4 gallon per minute or so, a Well ManagerŪ would have been my first choice.  It would cost less than a new well and would easily provide my house with enough water to operate normally (and it's guaranteed!, unlike a new well).  They say the average house uses something like 75 to 125 gallons per person per day. In my case there is only 2 of us and I know we use about 200 gallons per day on average, dish washer, washing machine, animals and all. If you were to think of a well that yields only 1 gallon per minute, a quick calculation will show you that is 1440 gallon per day ! That is over 7 times my normal usage......and at a yield of only 1 gallon per minute!!  

Having to drill a new well, I also wanted to take the very best care of my new investment.  Once the well was completed, at over twice the depth of my old well, I found that if I installed the Well ManagerŪ, I could actually use a smaller well pump. This is due to not needing to harvest great quantities of water quickly from my well.  The smaller size pump also allowed me to stay with 10 awg wire all the way to the pump.  This provided a savings, both in wire costs and pump electrical usage. 

I ordered a Well ManagerŪ Modular System and installed it myself.  Here is some pictures of the process:

The system harvests the water in small amounts on a regular schedule, 24 hours a day, to keep the storage tank full.  This sipping of the water keeps the tank  full, the water crystal clear and never stresses the well.  The regular pump cycle keeps the pump operating within the optimum pump curve specifications for a long life. 


If you or your neighbors are experiencing problems or you are just not sure what condition your well is operating in, our well evaluation service couldConsistent Pressure ! provide that important information.  Maybe a Well ManagerŪ could prevent you from drilling a new well because of a low yield. I like the  functionality of the product, but my wife likes the 65 pounds of water from the Consistent Pressure Module.  Imagine knowing you have the availability of the water you need and pressure too! Ask me how a Well ManagerŪ could change your life!

Having experienced the Well ManagerŪ firsthand, I was so impressed with the performance that I decided I had to become a dealer and bring this great product to the Southwest.
