Well Pump Services in Virginia, Maryland, & Pennsylvania

Types of Well Pumps

There are two main types of well pumps. Depending on whether your well system is deep or shallow, you will typically have either a submersible pump or a jet pump.

In shallow-water systems, a jet pump is positioned just above the water table and pulls water upward. Conversely, a submersible well pump is for deep-water systems and operates by pushing water upward. The geographical location of your residence and the depth of the water table will determine if your well is deep or shallow.

As a well owner, you can watch for several signs to make sure your well pump is working properly.
