Well-needle: the simplest design

The well is a rather expensive structure, which in the manufacture requires special equipment and certain skills. Moreover, if the level of occurrence of aquifers is not deeper than 15 meters, then you can use the simplest design, which was used in ancient times.

That is why many owners of gardens and private houses are interested in how to make a well needle with their own hands.

Phased process

To begin with, it should be said that this type of structures is not suitable for every locality.. The level of the first aquifer should be no deeper than 15 meters. At the same time in the soil should not contain hard rock or black clay.

Training

• First of all, a needle is made for a well, from a usual inch pipe.
• At its end set a kind of peak, like a spear, which is desirable to sharpen well.
• At a distance of 20 cm from the peak, the tube is perforated. In this case, the holes should be arranged randomly so as not to weaken the product. This area should be 20-30 cm in length.
• It is worth noting that the 15 meter pipe is quite difficult to install. However, such a length may not be required. Therefore, it is common to use pieces that are joined together by welding.
• Recently, for fastening the segments to each other, threaded spurs are used. However, they should be installed only through the coupling.

• It is desirable that the first segment has the maximum available length, since it will be the main load that falls on it. It is also worth remembering that the well on the water needle can have a depth of only 7 meters and therefore the rest of the material may not be needed.
• Special attention should be paid to the functional load of the pipe. In wells of this type, it is both casing and main, and therefore, you should not choose thin-walled material.

Tip! Some masters strongly recommend installing a grid on the bottom of such a pipe, which will serve as a filter. However, this should not be done, since it will quickly become clogged, and it will be very problematic to make a replacement. In these designs, it is better to use a filter on a pump or a pump for a well, although products with large cells or wire-based ones can also be installed, but only from the outside.

Manufacturing

• It is worth noting that the water in the country and the land plot is extracted from wells belongs to the state, since it belongs to the category of minerals. Therefore, before starting to work, you need to get the appropriate documentation.
• It is also desirable to have a special technique for drilling wells. If it is not there, then you can invite specialists for a corresponding fee or rent a similar unit.

• It is necessary to say that it is quite possible to do without special equipment, but then you need to have a certain tool for manual work. However, its use is considered a very time-consuming process, although the price of such independent works will be small.
• First, drill a hole with a diameter slightly smaller or the same as the pipe. Professional masters argue that usually enough depth of 5-8 meters. However, not everyone can afford such equipment and therefore it is made the maximum possible, even if it is only 3 meters.

• At the next stage, the previously prepared pipe is inserted into the hole, with the sharp end down.
• When it reaches the bottom of the well, then with the help of a percussion instrument, it begins to be immersed in the ground until it reaches the aquifer. This will be expressed by the fact that water will begin to appear inside.

• After this, the installation manual recommends digging around a well 1 meter deep, which is concreted and equipped with a lid. This design will form the basis of a water well.
• Then, an outside pump, filter and hydroaccumulator are installed in the well. At the same time, professional craftsmen recommend purchasing these assembled products, which will be much more practical and more economical.

• You can also install a manual pump, which was used in the nineteenth century. It does not need electrical energy and can be used in extreme situations.
• It should be noted that water from such sources very often carries rain masses that are cleaned through the soil. However, in order to be sure of its quality, it is worth doing an analysis. The fact is that the sources of this type are quite specific and can often contain water that is not suitable for drinking.
• It is worth remembering that the well is a structure that needs a sanitary zone. It is best to protect it with a small fence to prevent accidental pollution of the area.

Tip! When hammering a pipe into the ground, it is necessary to be very careful not to bend it or damage the junction of the segments. Therefore, it is recommended to use a special percussion instrument or make a wooden backing.

Conclusion

Watching the video in this article, you can get detailed information about the wells of this type. At the same time, on the basis of the text presented above, it should be concluded that the installation of such a structure is quite simple and does not require large financial costs, especially if it is done without the use of special equipment.

That is why the majority of summer residents or land owners are trying to stop on such projects. However, it should be remembered that it is not always possible to do this, since the first aquifer can be located at a great depth or the water in it is not suitable for drinking.
