Well Water Finders

We locate groundwater before drilling, helping to save landowners thousands of dollars before a water well drilling attempt.

About Well Water Finders

2023 was the hottest year on record and groundwater levels around the world are dropping quickly. For a landowner irrigating a farm, building a subdivision, or feeding livestock, having water is not a choice, it's a critical need. If a landowner loses water on their property, they have to come up with another water source. As our world experiences more and more drought, it will be harder and harder to find water sources. The Well Water Finders system is excellent at determining sources of water on a property.

Well Water Finders helps landowners save money by determining if there is enough groundwater at their property before they spend thousands of dollars to drill a water well. We help real estate, water well drillers, ranchers and rural municipalities determine groundwater location, depth and volume before they drill. Because the Well Water Finders technology can also detect hardness of layers capable of holding groundwater, the system can be used to help design playa ponds and recharge aquifers. In a world with record-breaking drought, we believe that recharging aquifers will be one of the most impactful uses of our technology.

Problem statement

Groundwater pain is real.
