As we approach summer, some experts recommend that private well owners inspect their wells. … Ben Frech, spokesperson for the California Groundwater Association … said an inspection by a certified professional can identify potential problems and leaks. On top of having the well inspected, he also recommends testing the quality of the well water and the water levels. Testing the water levels can give an idea of where they will be in the next two to three months, and testing the quality can check for any chemicals that may have seeped into the water.
