Plain guides for well owners around Chino Valley and Prescott Valley. Sources are listed on every page.

Symptoms and first steps
Start here when something is wrong right now. Each guide lists safe checks, what each clue points to, and what to tell the company.
Your well records
Your well record holds the depth, the driller's log and often the pump details. These guides show how to find and use it.
Seasonal
Cold snaps, summer storms and peak summer demand each stress a well in a different way.
Comparisons
Side by side looks at the choices a pump company may offer, with questions to ask before you decide.
What affects cost
We do not publish prices. These guides explain what changes the price so you can compare quotes fairly.
Special situations
Ranches, shared wells, manufactured homes, rentals and solar pumps each come with their own questions.
What to have ready when you call
- Your address and the nearest cross street, so the company can tell you if you are in their area.
- What is happening. No water at all, low pressure, a pump that will not shut off, a breaker that keeps tripping.
- Anything you know about the well. Depth, age of the pump, or the well registration number that starts with 55- (see below for how to look it up).
- What you already checked. For example, whether the breaker for the well is on and what the pressure gauge near the tank reads.
Do not know the details? Call anyway. The company will ask the right questions.
