West of Casa Grande, Stanfield sits in farm country on the Maricopa-Stanfield sub-basin, and Mobile lies out in the desert across the line in Maricopa County. Land near Stanfield had sunk about 11.8 feet from groundwater pumping by 1977. Homes out here are spread out, and nearly all of them rely on their own well systems.
Rural systems tend to be bigger than a pump and a tank. Many have a storage tank that the well fills slowly, controlled by liquid level controls, with a booster pump and pressure tanks delivering water to the house. Long runs of water line, sometimes hundreds of feet, connect it all, and a leak in a buried line can quietly drain a storage tank.
After an installation, Mark & Kim W. of Mobile wrote: “He not only provided what we were hoping for but exceeded our expectations with a view of our future needs.” That is the goal on every rural system: size it for the property, not just for today.
Stanfield & Mobile questions
Asked around Stanfield & Mobile.
Why do so many rural homes near Stanfield use a storage tank?
A storage tank lets a slow or deep well fill a reserve between uses, and a booster pump then supplies pressure to the house. It also gives you water on hand while the well is being serviced.
My storage tank keeps running low. What’s wrong?
Common causes are a leaking buried line, a stuck float or failed liquid level control, a worn well pump or a well producing less than it used to. A yield test and a look at the controls usually narrow it down.

No water? Check the pump breaker once. If it trips again, leave it off and call. Never open the pressure switch or control box: 240 volts.
