Highland sits at the base of the San Bernardino Mountains, where foothill properties and rural estates depend on private wells for their water supply.

Highland's Well System Challenges

Foothill Geology

Highland's location at the mountain base creates variable well conditions:

  • Variable depths: Wells range from 150 to 500+ feet depending on location
  • Rocky formations: Some areas require pumps capable of handling sand and sediment
  • Water quality variations: Mineral content varies by neighborhood
  • Seasonal recharge: Mountain runoff affects water tables

East Highlands Ranch

The East Highlands Ranch development includes many properties on wells. Common issues we see:

  • Builder-installed systems reaching end of life
  • Undersized pressure tanks for larger homes
  • Pump capacity issues with pool fills and irrigation
  • Control box failures from summer heat

🏔️ Foothill Property Tip

Properties closer to the mountains often have different well characteristics than valley-floor wells. If you're buying a foothill property, ask about well depth, water production rate, and equipment age. A pre-purchase well inspection can reveal potential issues before they become your problem.

Common Well Pump Problems

Complete Water Loss

  • Electrical failures: Control box, capacitor, or wiring problems
  • Motor burnout: Common in older pumps, especially after hot summers
  • Pressure switch failure: Won't signal pump to run
  • Low water level: During drought or high-demand seasons

Reduced Pressure

  • Waterlogged pressure tank: Lost air charge
  • Worn pump: Impellers or bearings failing
  • Mineral buildup: Scale restricting flow
  • Clogged filters: Sediment accumulation

Cycling Issues

  • Failed tank bladder: Most common cycling cause
  • Pressure switch problems: Settings or worn contacts
  • Check valve failure: Water draining back
  • System leaks: Preventing stable pressure
