At Minnesota Well Service, we specialize in water pump and tank replacements to ensure your well system operates at peak performance. Whether you are experiencing reduced water pressure, strange noises, or complete system failure, our expert team is here to provide efficient and reliable solutions.
Water pumps and tanks can go bad for a number of reasons… a lightning strike, age, etc. We can replace them and have your well system up and running again. A word of advice would be to check the condition of your tank every so often. If your tank goes bad, you can get short cycling of the pump which, in turn, can cause the pump to burn out. Most people don’t know their tank is bad until the pump goes out and then, unfortunately, you need to replace both of them.
