Residential Water Supply & Pump AutomationRepair and Maintenance Decisions4HighOwner$ implied

Without main piping, the only way to avoid a mess when working on the well is to drain it, and the pump cannot be pulled because it may be hard piped.

No existing solution allows isolating the well head or pulling the pump without draining the well or dealing with hard piping, making maintenance messy and difficult.
