Whether you’re supplying an irrigation system, providing for livestock, or simply filling a storage tank, a windmill is the ideal way to draw water up from an underground aquifer. Windmills are the original “green” technology, using the wind—which we have in abundance—to get all manner of jobs done.
If you have a windmill to provide pumping power for your water well, you’re free from reliance on the power grid, and you aren’t paying outrageous electric bills no matter how much water you pump. But as simple as a windmill is, it is still a piece of technology. Like anything mechanical, a windmill accumulates wear and tear over time. Sudden problems or damage can occur. How can you tell if you need windmill repair?
