Brands We Install
Which well pump brands do we trust? Gould, Myers and Grundfos for pumps and constant pressure, Well-X-Trol for tanks, Bison hand pumps, and GDS and Viqua UV lights. Proven parts we stand behind. Call Oasis Well Service at 703-791-3981.
Why We Stick With a Few Well Pump Brands
We get asked about well pump brands a lot. Our answer is simple. We install a short list of proven parts that we know, that we can stand behind, and that we can get parts for. When your water is out, the last thing you need is a part nobody can find.
Sticking with a few brands also means our certified technicians know these parts inside and out. That makes diagnosis faster and repairs cleaner. It is the same way we have worked since Ken Lindgren started the company in 1987. Three generations of our family have worked on these wells, and we would rather put in something we trust than chase whatever is new.
There is a practical side too. A pump sits down in your well for years. If something goes wrong, we want to be able to get the right part and get you back in water, not wait on a special order for a brand we rarely see. That matters most on a no-water call.
Pumps and Constant Pressure: Gould, Myers and Grundfos
For well pumps and constant pressure systems, we install Gould, Myers and Grundfos. All three have earned a place on our truck. Which one goes in your well depends on your well and your household, not on a sales pitch. If you like the idea of steady pressure through the whole house, we can walk you through whether a constant pressure system fits your home or whether a standard pump and tank is the better call. See well pump repair and replacement for how we handle the job.
Tanks, Hand Pumps and UV Lights
Well-X-Trol Pressure and Holding Tanks
We install Well-X-Trol for pressure tanks and holding tanks. A good tank, set to match your pressure switch, protects your pump from short cycling. A tank that lost its air makes a pump start and stop over and over, which wears it out early. Learn more about pressure tank replacement.
Bison Hand Pumps
For backup water when the power is out, we install Bison hand pumps. They are a solid choice for farms, rural homes and anyone who wants water with no electricity. See hand pumps and hydrants.
GDS and Viqua UV Lights
When a test shows E. coli or coliform, we install GDS and Viqua UV lights. We test first and treat second. See UV disinfection and water testing.
How We Pick the Right Part for Your House
A brand name alone does not make a good install. The part has to fit the job. Here is what we look at:
- Your well, including water level, depth and how much it can give.
- Your household, how many people and how much water you use.
- Your water quality, which can affect how long a pump lasts.
- Whether a repair makes more sense than a replacement.
That last one matters. If a switch, a tank or a tripped breaker is the real problem, we will tell you. We do not replace a pump that does not need replacing.
A 5-Year Warranty on Pump Installs
Every pump install comes with our 5-year warranty. We can offer that because we use parts we trust and install them to county code. Diagnosis is free, within reason. Call 703-791-3981, or 703-776-0996 if you have no water. Curious how all these parts connect? Read how your well works.
Questions we hear a lot
Which well pump brand is best?
There is no single best brand for every house. We install Gould, Myers and Grundfos, and we pick the one that fits your well and your household. We will explain why we recommend what we do.
Do you install Grundfos constant pressure systems?
Yes. We install constant pressure systems from Grundfos, Gould and Myers. We will talk through whether constant pressure makes sense for your home before you decide.
Why do you use Well-X-Trol pressure tanks?
Well-X-Trol is the tank we trust for pressure and holding tanks, and we can get parts for it. We set each tank to match your pressure switch so it protects your pump.
Does the 5-year warranty cover my pressure tank too?
Our 5-year warranty is on pump installs. For a tank or other part, ask us when we quote the job and we will explain what applies. Call 703-791-3981 with questions.
How do you decide what size pump my house needs?
We size the pump to your well and your household. That means looking at the well itself, how many people live there and how much water you use. A pump that is the wrong size can wear out early.
Should I repair my well pump or replace it?
It depends on what actually failed. Sometimes the fix is a switch, a tank or a breaker, not the pump. We diagnose first and tell you honestly if a repair makes more sense.
What is a Bison hand pump used for?
A Bison hand pump lets you draw water from your well with no electricity. It is a good backup for power outages, and farms and rural homes often like having one.
Is a GDS or Viqua UV light right for my well?
Both are UV lights we install to treat E. coli and coliform. We test your water first, then recommend the setup that fits your system. Call 703-791-3981 to start with a water test.
