Water supply

Have you ever tried to live a day without water? And do not even do it, because our body requires about 2 liters daily, otherwise it is expected unpleasant consequences. Therefore, before buying a plot in the country, make sure that there is an opportunity to make an autonomous water supply with sufficient flow rate of the source.

General information

In fact, you will have two options in this situation - a well or a well. We will tell about the latter in more detail below, to be more precise, how to get the maximum amount of water of excellent quality from it. It will be about how to pump a new well and how to do it after repairing the source.

At first glance it may seem that there is nothing difficult in this process. Indeed, this stage is not as difficult as before, but often it is preceded by a thorough geological study of underground soil, in order to be sure of its choice.

Tip: if you doubt your knowledge of geology, it is better to contact the experts, so save your money.

You must achieve pure water

Buildup

  1. If in a nutshell - the buildup of the well is designed to obtain from the source of the maximum amount of quality water. It is completed only when you are satisfied with the flow rate of the well (well), and also when the purity of the water raised to the surface conforms to the standard, i.e. without turbidity and other impurities.
  2. The pumping of the new well is made by electric pumps of the submersible type, for example, centrifugal, having a good margin of safety. It is best to use slurry models, but if you didn’t have them before, then you shouldn’t get them, as their price is quite high.
Removal of dirty water from the source pump
  1. It is better to start swinging the well immediately after it has been manufactured and not to stop work until you achieve the desired result. Otherwise, the process will have to be repeated again.

There are two main options - the wells are pumped out completely or not to the bottom. In the first case, it is advisable to do this when the well is dug in clayey solid soils, in the second case, if there is flooding below, otherwise the loose bottom of the well rises abruptly, blocking access to the underground aquifer.

Pumping

Every day you began to notice that although there was enough water for drinking and drinking water, but its volume, and maybe even the level in the well, was decreasing. We will immediately discuss the second parameter, since it depends on the physical law of the communicating vessels. Therefore, the horizon in the well will be exactly the same as the horizon of the aquifer on which it is installed.

There are two main reasons for such troubles - the jailing of the source, which is not so bad in fact, and geological disturbance. It is also possible that someone made their larger size close to your well.

In any case, after the repair, you will need to pump the well with a submersible pump.

  1. When silting or zapochechivaniya mine, it is necessary to clean it, taking a shovel, bucket, ladder, cable to raise the bucket to the surface with dirt and call for an assistant to work quickly dispersed. Please note that before you go down into the well, you must do it yourself to sanitize your shoes and tools in the bleach solution so as not to disturb the quality of the water.
The process of removing dirty water from the source

After carrying out cleaning works, connect the pump for pumping of mine. It will raise the surface of the mud and dirt with debris, making the water after a while again clean and drinkable.

  1. The second case is much harder to implement. Here, you may have to use the services of special teams that will be able to deepen the well to the required level, but not less than 3 meters.

The process is dangerous and time consuming and has already been described on our website. But after it is over, you will again need to know how to pump the well by connecting a pump to raise the dirty water from the mine upward. How long it can go on can only be determined theoretically, in practice everything can end in 4 hours, and possibly in a few days.

Pumping the source with a slurry pump

Tip: do not rush to deepen the pump shaft after the water is gone. It may have gone because of severe frosts or drought, and after the temperature normalizes, it will return, or the flow rate may have decreased due to the fact that the well was dug out in April, i.e. during the highest level of the water reservoir.

Abyssinian well or well-needle

An interesting and simple in its essence design, which allows for a couple of hours to get water for the site. However, be prepared that the first aquifer will be completely different from what we would like, most likely, you can get to the upper layer.

So, no matter how much you pump a well of this type, you will not get high-quality drinking water. In this situation, it is better to know in advance how deep the water horizon is, to prepare all the necessary tools and materials so as not to indulge yourself with empty illusions.

Pumping well-needle surface pumping station

Let's learn how to pump the Abyssinian well correctly. Unlike the options described above, here it will be used for pumping not a submersible, but a surface pump. It should be noted that if the level of the water layer is located below 7 m, it will be necessary to dig a hole near the well to balance the level with the pump performance characteristics.

Manual pump for pumping the Abyssinian well

The instruction of the pumping process is simple - you securely install a pump near the well, connect it to it, pre-fill its case with water and turn it on. After that, you will only have to wait and observe the purity of the water raised to the surface. Prepare in advance a place where you can merge it without turning the site into a marsh.

Conclusion

From the above, it became clear how to shake a new well and pump it after repair for normal operation of the structure. Only the first task is performed immediately after the source device, and the second after the repair. Knowledge of how to properly shake the well you need, so as not to spoil the new or old structure.

You must be confident in the work being carried out in order not to permanently disrupt the flow of water into the well. To do this, you must have certain knowledge in geology or you have to use the services of paid qualified specialists to achieve a good result. In the presented video in this article you will find additional information on this topic.
