How many years does a well last?
- A well typically lasts 30 to 50 years, but this depends on factors like:
- Ground conditions: Some areas have more corrosive soil or water, which can shorten the well’s lifespan.
- Well depth and construction: Deeper wells generally last longer as they tap into more stable groundwater sources.
- Water usage: Excessive water use can strain the well and pump, leading to earlier failure.
- Maintenance: Regular testing and servicing can extend a well’s lifespan by preventing major issues before they worsen.
