Look up pump cavitation.

Why don't You send the water to a lab and have it tested? That would tell you how safe the water is.

Nice project

Hope you are in a warm climate where it never freezes, otherwise everything will burst. In cold climates, we build insulated pump-houses with a heat source for winters.

With respect, how do you know you're hitting a water pocket? And not a sewer? Are you going to test the water for bacteria? Pesticides?

In a lot of states and counties, it is illegal to drill your own well (in suburban or urban zones). Before doing this everyone that wants to try this, needs to check with the local laws.

Good to know!

Very resourceful- Lucky you didn't hit a large rock on the way down. Drillers will go on standby with their special core bit.

Your birdcage vanished

Great video I love this!

can you test your tap water please

Watching him almost break a window with pvc and struggle with 40’ pipe yup he’s from California 😂

You are going to have problems putting the check valve where you did. You should have used a foot valve.

Did something similar but used a threaded adapter on the bottom of the 2” pvc and threaded a piece of steel pipe into it with the cutting teeth.

Where in California

I couldn't see which Drylock product you used or if a primer is recommended. That would have been infinitely more useful than the directorial talents on display

If you want an interesting experiment leave both well and tap water out for your animals and see which they prefer.

What is the point of this?Obviously you're using water from your house to drill the will.You don't need the water.

great video man, my type of UA-cam

Believe me there are millions of people drinking water way way way worse. Specially the sewer water recycle back to drinking water.

I need to see your permit. You can’t drill a well without the governments permission…😂

So different to where I live. Here, there's barely 6 inches of topsoil, and then you hit bedrock. There's no such thing as digging anything much by hand.

thank you!! been searching around for a brick house roof-balcony install

Dude. It's been 8 days. Are you okay?

Wow very well done my friend, impressive.

We should all be free to do this.

We have shale here id need to suck the stones out maybe even drill though bigger lumps

Congratulations but you are lucky you didn’t hit a natural gas pocket or many others factor that could have blown up your whole neighborhood.

I enjoyed watching this video about drilling a backyard well, but I’m not sure if it would work in my yard. We have a lot of rocks in our backyard soil, and I think that might make it difficult to drill a well. It would be great to have the freedom to drill my own well, but I don’t think it’s practical for us.

This was a good video! I've subscribed!

Use clear primer.

You've got dirt in the water - pushed up out of the - 2in pipe, running *right back inside* the 4in pipe. Some of it is washed away, but I'll bet some goes all the way down to the bottom of the 4in pipe. Seems like if you diverted that dirty water, it would be better, easier, to push the 2in pipe down. Thanks for the ideas, showing us your work. This is definitely a cool idea!

hmm, I have a quest to find undisturbed soil so I can sink a pier and build a 4 car garage with 2 garage lifts in them. This working on cardboard or a creeper on bumper concrete in the driveway sucks, esp after you had a lift at the old house.. I also know there is a 2-4 foot band of sandstoneburied under the top soil. And we know, Half a mile from my house, there is still that band of sandstone - I saw a foundation being built and saw that same band of sandstone. Finally, about 40 yards from where I want to build, an excavator guy found that band of sandstone, so we know it's there. Joe dug a trench and to catch any runoff. It was filled in later, and just don't remember the details. I'll sleep on it, but why not do what you did here and sink 4 inch or 6 inch pipe as the "sleeve" and fill it concrete as my pier ?

I didn’t see a test for arsenic 😂

My $100/month water is nowhere near as clear as yours. All the county health department tests have said the water is safe, but you wouldn't think so to look at it.

Drinking that water is a million times better than the garbage that's pumped through our homes.

Just be aware if theres communication between your drywell and your water well during a heavy rainstorm it could cause cross contamination.

between this and your well videos I've subbed. I like your ideas, methods, and rationale.

Get rid of those elbow fittings and you will get my pressure and more water

Its sad there’s probably more wells in africa than in cities and communities in the USA.

I believe my water table is at about 300 ft according to some well data in my area. I'm not exactly sure how accruate that information is or what you used to determine yours.

every 4 - 8 inches you would hit a rock the size of your head or chest at my house... XD

Are you using a jetting hose with the pressure washer or just the standard wand end? Thanks

"if I don't upload any more videos, you'll know why..." been there. Great video. Thanks!!

Such a beautiful house

interesting.

The wood for the fence is from which planet?😊Fancy laser equipment! I got to have one of those!

Wow it would be great to live outside of alluvium or glacial till and be able to go more than 1' without hitting cobbles and boulders. This was a cool project tho. Well MacGuyverd

Where are you located? Approximately? Planning a shallow well to keep a pond topped off once it's dug.

Sweet
