I recently had some repairs done due to a broken pvc pipe coming off my jet pump . I noticed that the inside of the discarded piece of pvc was stained an orange ish or rust color. Is this normal? Or should I be concerned? I also noticed a there was a film on top of the water inside my above ground reserve tank, that hasn't been present before. But, I haven't noticed any change in clarity or odor to the water coming into the house. I have been renting at my current residence for 12+ years now. And to say my landlord is "absentee" is putting it mildly. The only maintenance that has been done is when something breaks. There hasn't been any testing for water quality or safety the entire time I've been here. My concern is also heightened because there are no filters of any kind on the entire system.
Please keep in mind any knowledge I've gained on wells has been due to the school of hard knocks... & limited. lol I would like to test my water to ensure its safe for household use and drinking. But I have no idea what I need to best accomplish this? Any help or advice will be greatly appreciated! Thank you
