How Well Pressure Tank Burst Cleanup Works in Douglas

3. Open trapped layers

• Turn off the well pump only if the switch is reachable from a dry, safe place.
• Keep people out of water near pump controls or electrical equipment.
• Call a well technician to isolate and repair the failed equipment.
• Move dry valuables away from the spreading water without crossing a hazard.
• Photograph visible damage from a safe position, then call for extraction.
