Prescott wells and well pump replacement
A replacement pump has to be pulled from the depth it is set at, and in Prescott that is usually a few hundred feet. Recorded wells in 86301 have a median depth of 274 ft, and 90 percent are shallower than 515 ft.[source] The median static water level is 80 ft in 86301, 58 ft in 86303 and 183 ft in 86304, which the company uses with depth to decide where to set the new pump.[source]

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.

Well pump replacement in Prescott: questions
How do I know the pump needs replacing and not a repair?
A company can test the pump and wiring from the surface before pulling it. Ask what tests they ran.
Does a deeper well cost more to replace?
Depth adds work because there is more pipe and wire to pull. We do not publish prices. The company will quote your well.
