It’s a treat to have a friend visiting from out of town. She sits in the kitchen, catching up on all the latest news and sharing her own until her throat is dry and she gets up to fill a glass from the sink. She takes a sip and winces slightly. After much pressing, she admits that every since she moved to the country and got used to well water, city water has tasted funny to her. The way water tastes aren’t something most people think much about, but upon taking a drink with those words in mind; it becomes clear that the friend is on to something. This water tastes unpleasantly of chlorine and iron. Suddenly, the water bill resting on the counter seems to be mocking you. A significant bill every month, and for what–expensive, smelly water?
Many people in this situation buy filters for their drinking water and think of it no more. However, those who would like to truly improve the quality of the water coming into their house may wish to look into well conversions in Wichita KS. Converting from city water to well water is not as difficult as it may seem. It can be pricey to drill a well, but it drastically reduces water bills, which reduces costs in the long run. And wells put maintenance on the homeowner’s shoulders rather than the city’s, yes–but for some, the trade off of better, cheaper water is worth that. Plus, dealing with occasional maintenance means being knowledgeable about one’s water quality and the way water makes its way into one’s home, which is valuable information to have.
Because there are strict guidelines for water quality across the country, Well Conversions in Wichita KS should be performed by licensed professionals. The best companies will be able to show off their credentials to assure potential clients that they are not just licensed, but also bonded, insured and certified. Some companies, like Rain Link Inc., will provide free estimates, which those in the market for a well conversion should probably utilize.
Before switching from municipal to well water, one will also need to be able to ensure that the company being used offers emergency services, in case anything ever goes wrong, as well as several ways to get in contact with a technician.
