Dewey wells and well pump replacement
A replacement pump has to be pulled from the depth it is set at, and in Dewey that is usually a few hundred feet. Recorded wells in 86327 have a median depth of 305 ft, and 90 percent are shallower than 505 ft.[source] The median static water level is 110 ft in 86327, which the company uses with depth to decide where to set the new pump.[source]
| ZIP | Area | Well records | Median depth | Middle half of depths | Median static water level | Median tested yield |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 86327 | Dewey | 2,031 | 305 ft | 202 to 410 ft | 110 ft | 10 gpm |
What well pump replacement involves
Because the hard part is getting the pump out, many owners ask what else should be replaced at the same time, like the wire, the check valve or the pipe. Ask the company to explain what they see once it is up.
Signs to watch for in a Dewey home
- The pump is old and was repaired more than once
