Hi,
This spring after all the snow melted, I noticed water around the well casing at the top of the ground. So I am pretty sure there is a leak somewhere (possibly in the pitless adaptor), but we are on an artesian well (and it has enough natural pressure that water goes right to the top even with pump not running) so water pressure is fine in the house and really the water is drawn much lower than the actual leak point of course.
So the question is, it would be nice to fix it of course but do I NEED to fix this? Will it be ok through next winter too?
Just found out we need a new furnace last week so looking at $5000 for that and I don't want to spend an extra $1000 plus to dig up the well, pump rental, etc... to fix this.
Thanks,
Dan
