Well Testing
Data Logging, Well Yield & Water Table Testing
A well yield test is a crucial step in understanding the capability of your well to provide the necessary water supply. It involves a careful assessment of how much water your well can yield within a specific time frame and how efficiently it replenishes from the available groundwater.
Our Methodology
At Kappus Pumps and Plumbing, known as “The Pump Man,” we employ a comprehensive and accurate approach to conduct well yield tests. Leveraging cutting-edge technology and advanced tools, we ensure precise measurements and valuable insights into your water source.
Key Components:
Digital Water Level Sensor: This device provides accurate real-time data about the water level in the well, offering critical information for the test.
Water Flow Meter: Measuring the flow rate of water during the test is essential to evaluate the well’s capacity effectively.
Data Logger: We use a data logger to record and analyze the collected data, including water flow rates and water table levels, for a comprehensive assessment.
Testing Procedure:
Maximum Flow Rate Testing: We run your water system at its maximum flow rate, accurately measuring the volume of water pumped within the specified time frame.
Data Logging: Utilizing the data logger, we capture and record essential information during the test, ensuring precision and accuracy in the evaluation.
Recovery Rate Analysis: After stopping the water flow, we calculate how fast the well replenishes, evaluating the recovery rate. This analysis helps determine the sustainability and adequacy of the well for current and future projects.
Benefits of Well Yield Testing
Assess Well Viability: Understand if your well is running dry or if it can meet the demands of your ongoing and future projects.
Informed Decision Making: Utilize the precise data collected during the test to make informed decisions regarding your water supply system.
Optimize Water Usage: Understand the sustainable flow rate to maximize water
utilization while ensuring a consistent supply.
Trust “The Pump Man” for Accurate Testing Our expertise, combined with advanced technology and a commitment to precise
assessments, makes us the ideal choice for well yield testing.
Contact us today to schedule a well yield test and ensure your water system is ready to meet your needs reliably and efficiently. A water well professional will pump the water for an extended time and make measurements for both the pumping rate and the drawdown, or how much the water level decreases while pumping. With these measurements, they can then calculate what
the well yield is read to how much water is recharged from the available groundwater. A water well professional will pump the water for an extended time and make measurements for both the pumping rate and the drawdown, or how much the water
