Yes, Running Springs' 6,000+ feet elevation means regular freezing temperatures and significant snowfall. All well systems require proper winterization including insulated pump houses, heat tape, and buried water lines to prevent freeze damage.
The optimal drilling season is late spring through early fall when roads are clear and ground conditions allow equipment access. We can sometimes drill in winter depending on conditions. Contact us early to schedule for your preferred timeframe.
