The Importance of Regular Well Pump Maintenance in Florida Homes

Your well pump is one of the most important—and often overlooked—parts of your home. Without it, there’s no running water. And in Florida’s heat, going without water isn’t just inconvenient—it can be a health risk.

At All Around Water Services, we specialize in helping homeowners in Cape Coral, North Fort Myers, and nearby areas avoid water emergencies with professional well pump maintenance and inspections.


Why Well Pump Maintenance Matters

Skipping routine service can lead to:

  • Sudden water loss

  • Expensive emergency repairs

  • Contaminated or dirty water

  • Shortened pump lifespan

  • High electricity bills from inefficient operation

With Florida’s mineral-rich groundwater and frequent power fluctuations, well pumps are under more stress than most people realize.


What Regular Maintenance Looks Like

Our professional well pump maintenance includes:

  • Checking and adjusting pressure switch settings

  • Testing pump performance and flow rate

  • Inspecting wiring, control box, and pressure tank

  • Flushing out sediment and inspecting for signs of wear

  • Verifying well casing and water levels

This proactive care helps spot minor issues before they turn into big (and expensive) ones.


How Often Should You Service a Well Pump?

We recommend a full inspection every 12 months—especially in Florida, where sediment and hard water can speed up wear. If your pump runs more frequently (e.g. large families or irrigation use), you may need service more often.


Signs You’re Overdue for Maintenance

  • Inconsistent water pressure

  • Air coming from faucets

  • Cloudy or sandy water

  • Pump running too often

  • Rust stains or strange tastes in water

  • High electric bills

These are red flags your system may be struggling—or on the verge of failure.


Florida-Specific Well Pump Concerns

Our local water systems often deal with:

  • Iron and sulfur causing staining and odor

  • Sediment buildup from shifting aquifers

  • Hard water scaling inside plumbing and equipment

  • Storm-related electrical surges that affect controls

We know how Florida’s unique conditions affect your well—and how to protect your system long-term.
