Well water is safe when you own the responsibility. City water has a team of engineers. You are the engineer, the plumber, and the quality control manager. But you also get delicious, chemical-free water that doesn’t taste like a swimming pool.
So test it. Maintain your pump. Seal that cap. And don’t freak out if it gets a little funky now and then—just fix it.
Now go drink a glass. But maybe run it for a second first. Nobody likes sediment floaters in their morning coffee. Cheers.
