Don’t Get Caught Without Water During a Power Outage—We Can Help!
When an emergency strikes and the power goes out, the last thing you want is to be without water. For those relying on well water systems, a power outage can cut off your home’s water supply completely, leaving you vulnerable. But it doesn’t have to be that way. At Bruce MacKay Pump and Well Service, we understand how critical access to water is, especially during unexpected emergencies, and we’re here to help you stay prepared.
Why You Lose Water When the Power Goes Out
If your home is on a well water system, it’s powered by an electric pump. When the power goes out, so does the pump, which means no water for drinking, cooking, cleaning, or even flushing the toilet. Without a backup plan, a power outage could leave you high and dry—literally.
Backup Solutions to Keep Water Flowing
There are several solutions available to ensure you never lose access to water, even during prolonged power outages:
1. Emergency Backup Generators
One of the most reliable options is installing a backup generator. A properly sized generator can keep your well pump running, along with other essential systems in your home. Our team at Bruce MacKay can help you determine the right generator for your needs, ensuring your well system stays operational no matter what.
2. Water Storage Tanks
Another option to consider is a water storage tank. These tanks can store a large amount of water, ensuring your family has enough to get through short-term power outages. Combined with a manual pump or a small generator, you can continue to access water in emergencies.
3. Solar-Powered Water Pumps
For those seeking a sustainable solution, solar-powered water pumps are a great option. These systems run on solar energy, providing a continuous water supply even during extended outages. With advancements in solar technology, they’ve become more efficient and affordable than ever.
