Is Well Water Right for You?

If you're new to the idea of well water, then you undoubtedly have questions about any benefits that well water may offer you over city and/or county tap water. Read the information here to help you realize what many of those benefits are.

If not for the small amount of power used to pump the water into the house, well water would be completely free. When your house is on well water, you can say goodbye to that monthly water bill. One expense you should take on annually is to have your well water tested to ensure the water is healthy.

Well water will be free of fluoride, chlorine, and other chemicals added to city water. When your well water has tested clean, you will know what's in and not in your water.  

When on city or county water, your access to water will be dependent on everything running smoothly on their end. A lot of things can happen that can leave you without water until the issue has been fixed.

For example, a large fire near your residence can make the city water unhealthy, and you may end up getting a warning telling everyone in the area that they need to boil the water or avoid using the water altogether.

You can also find that other emergencies in the area can also bring issues with your ability to access the city water. Some examples of things that can leave you without water include broken mains and updates to the system.

When you get your water straight from your own well, you'll have the peace of mind that comes with knowing exactly where your water comes from. You also won't have to be without water until someone else manages to get issues tended to.

While the municipal water may be safe to drink, you must admit to yourself that a lot was done to get the water to this point. In fact, so many things have been done to treat the water and ensure the water is safe to consume that the healthy properties and beneficial minerals have also been removed from the water.

Your well water didn't go through all those processes, which means the water you will be drinking will still have those healthy nutrients and minerals that are beneficial to your body. Along with your well water being better to drink, it is also better for your skin since it is gentler. This means softer skin with less acne and other skin conditions. Well water can also help to cut down on instances of inflammation.

One of the first steps to being off-grid is having the ability to take care of yourself and your family without counting on other individuals or companies to supply you with the things that you need for basic survival.

While well water is generally much better than city/county water, you can't assume your well water is healthy forever because contaminants can still affect your well water at some point.

But once you have your well water tested and it gets a clean bill of health, then you can continue enjoying all the perks of having your own well water.
