Water production from the well: a description of the

Own land can provide you with not only a place for building, cultivation of a vegetable garden and a garden, but also clean free water in any quantity. To do this, you just need competent drilling and construction of a well on it.

In this article we will consider all the necessary steps for this.

Drilling

Drilling wells - water to ensure your home should be from this stage. It is the finished mine that is subsequently equipped with all the necessary equipment and a stable water supply system is created..

Punching wells under water can be carried out in two ways: on sand and on clay. Let us examine their features.

Aquifers

1. A well drilled into a sandy aquifer is characterized as follows:

• Shallow depth, about 10-20 m.

• Poor performance
• Pollution by sewage due to lack of reliable protection.

Tip: to prevent the ingress of sewage into the well, it is recommended at the initial stage to choose a place for its creation, which is the most distant from possible sources of pollution.

• In case of a long idle well, silting occurs.

Tip: you should not drill the mine to the sandstone in the country, where you are only in seasonal time. Because over the winter it will come in a deplorable state and will require major repairs.

• Short service life, about ten years.
• Low selling price.
• The possibility of drilling with their own hands. That allows you to save even more.

1. Artesian well has a large number of positive characteristics:

• Great depth reaching 300 m in some regions.

• Reliable protection of the clay layer from external contamination.
• Low water temperature in the well.
• High performance, sufficient to provide multiple points of water intake.
• No silting process.
• Long service life, reaching fifty years.
• High complexity and laboriousness of the drilling process.

Tip: for drilling artesian mine is recommended to invite specialists with appropriate equipment. Because not only is this exercise very time consuming, so the assumption of the slightest mistake can weaken all its virtues.

• High implementation cost. It will require a lot of pipes and powerful equipment.

Arrangement

When constructing a mine, one should first of all understand what a water mirror in a well is. Since such a term you will often meet in communication with drillers or sellers of plumbing equipment. And everything is really simple, this is the surface of the groundwater. This is where we will lower the submersible pump.

For high-quality well operation, the following components will be required:

Pump

How to raise water from a well without electricity? In the country where there is no wiring, you can use a hand pump rod. Usually, pumping liquid in this way is used in oil production, but a household sample may well help out in wild places.

In the presence of the same wiring is better to use automated pumps:

1. Spiral. Pumping water from the well is carried out using turns of the rotor screw. Such devices are distinguished by low productivity and the ability to pump fluid mixed with garbage.

1. Centrifugal. Water is taken from the well along the inner, having spiral tracks, surfaces of the casing with propeller blades. This unit has a very high performance with small dimensions, but is very sensitive to the presence of sand in the water.

Tip: if using a centrifugal pump, water from a well goes jerky, it means that its surface does not reach the inlet. In this case, it is necessary to either lower the device below or add liquid through the outlet.

1. Vibration. They work by creating a magnetic field, which leads to the opening and closing of the input membrane with the subsequent injection of internal pressure. It throws H₂About to the point of consumption. Low cost and low consumption of electricity make it a budget option. The downside is the danger of destruction of the mine by vibration.

Tip: to protect the mine from the negative effects of the vibration pump, you should make its diameter obviously larger.

Installation Instructions:

1. We connect a metal-plastic pipe to the selected device. The spiral connection is sealed with flax and silicone.
2. Connect the power cable, hiding it in a heat shrink tube.
3. To a special eyelet on the body we attach a steel cable.
4. All three elements are connected by clamps into a single track.
5. Carefully immerse the device so that it is below the water level, but a meter above the bottom. This will minimize the ingress of bottom sand.
6. The cable from above is fixed to the tip.

Caisson

This object is designed to accommodate and protect the associated work equipment well and the entrance to it.

May be from such materials:

• concrete;
• stainless steel;
• aluminum;
• plastic.

For its installation, the excavation is digging a depth of one and a half meters wide according to the dimensions of the container around the shaft. Dips inside and buries up to the outlet.

Tip: in the presence of a heated basement, you can put all the necessary equipment in it. This will save the family budget.

Accumulator

This tank allows you to control the level of pressure throughout the plumbing system, protects against water hammer and ensures that there is a minimum amount of water in the event of a water supply outage. Located in the caisson.

Cap

This simple element seals the mine and protects it from precipitation and all kinds of garbage. Also, the upper end of the steel cable that holds the pump is fastened to it.

Service

Once a year or as needed, the bottom filter must be cleaned, as it gradually becomes clogged with sand and other bottom debris, reducing the debit of the mine.

Methods to increase well productivity:

• Pumping out dirty water with another deep well pump.
• Cleaning the well zhelonkoy.

• Filling with reagents.

Tip: It is also recommended to chlorinate the water in the well in case of a change in its color, taste or smell. This will kill all the harmful bacteria in its composition.

Conclusion

Extraction of water in its own area is a very capacious and sensitive business. But it is completely worth it. Having overcome all difficulties, you will have at your disposal a permanent, free and clean source of much-needed moisture.

The main work consists in the selection of the aquifer, the drilling of a well to it and the proper arrangement of it. Among the equipment the most important is the submersible pump. Different models have their own combination of negative and positive qualities, so you should carefully examine the technical characteristics of your mine and the capabilities of the devices before making the final choice.

Timely prevention of the well will significantly prolong its functioning and protect you from the use of poor-quality water.
