 Q: What should I do if my well pump stops working suddenly?                                                                        

 First check your circuit breaker — a tripped breaker is the most common cause of sudden pump failure. If the breaker is fine,      

 check your pressure tank gauge. If it reads zero, you likely have a failed pump or pressure switch. Call Pump Division at (509)    

 214-9355. We serve Spokane Valley and surrounding areas and can often respond same day.                                            

                                                                                                                                    

 Q: What are common signs that my well pump needs repair?                                                                           

 Watch for: low or no water pressure, air sputtering from faucets, unusually high electric bills, the pump running constantly       

 without shutoff, dirty or discolored water, or strange clicking sounds near the pressure tank. If you notice any of these, call    

 (509) 214-9355 for a diagnosis.                                                                                                    

                                                                                                                                    

 Q: Do I need a flow test to sell my home?                                                                                          

 Yes — most lenders and real estate transactions in Washington State require a certified 4-hour flow test. Pump Division provides   

 certified flow testing with written reports accepted by lenders and real estate agents. Call (509) 214-9355 to schedule.           

                                                                                                                                    

 Q: How often should my well be inspected?                                                                                          

 We recommend a well inspection every 1–2 years. Annual inspections help catch pump wear, pressure issues, and water quality        

 problems before they become expensive emergencies.                                                                                 

                                                                                                                                    

 Q: Who should test my water quality?                                                                                               

 Always use a licensed well drilling or pump repair company — not a home inspector. Home inspectors are not trained in well systems 

 and often miss critical issues. Pump Division provides certified nitrate and bacteria water testing with lab-certified results.    

                                                                                                                                    

 Q: Do you service areas outside Spokane Valley?                                                                                    

 Yes! We service Spokane, Mead, Deer Park, Liberty Lake, Cheney, Medical Lake, and surrounding communities throughout Eastern       

 Washington. Call (509) 214-9355 to confirm coverage in your area.
