This is a pretty good video. Informative and accurate. I've been doing nothing but reading about wells for the past few weeks. Finding water can be a challenge. Our existing 300 foot well in Northern Idaho went dry two weeks ago. We had two options, go deeper or try a different spot. There's pros and cons to both but we'll skip that. There is no magic answer to finding "The Spot", divining or otherwise however they now use electronic devices, not willow branches. Our neighbor drilled a 300 foot dry well and then found 25 gpm at only 200 feet! Back to our well. We opted to go deeper and found hard clay down to about 550 feet! Yuck! Fortunately, we got back into shale around 600 and are dropping the pump in today (9-10-14). It's only 10 gpm but it'll work. We should be out of this for "ONLY" $19,000.00. At $20 / foot, drilling a well gets expensive quickly and that's just the hole in the ground. Then you have to buy the pump and connect to the house with wiring and water. The deeper you go, the more powerful a pump you need and has anyone priced copper wire lately? Holy moly!!! So, you have to figure the distance to the house ( we're 500 feet down into the meadow) and then the distance down the hole. (we're another 600 down). That's 1,100 feet of #4 copper wire! We feel fortunate to have this cost less than $20,000.
Great explanation and training on water well drilling. Your charts and illustrations helped very much and matched up with the narration. Thank you for doing such a professional job on this video on Artesian well drilling. Are water yields from other wells in the area a good indication of what your well will produce when rotary drilled? Is a cable tool drilling rig better than rotary percussion for more fracturing of the aqua-fir? Thanks
how does one know, wether the selected location has "good" water and not contaminated water? Can you prevent contamination from entering these waters? Where does the water come from anyway? Rain, underground water? Is it limitless??
I'd like to hear more about what to do if your well is 200+ feet deep, and your water is potable, but smells. As opposed to the normal rotten-egg smell common in many peoples' wells, mine smells of natural gas. I live on the edge of a cedar swamp on a lake in northern MN, & my neighbor & I share a 2yr old well. We have stinky water. They have put the bleach pellets in twice, helps for 3 months, smell returns. If anyone has ideas or knows how to get ridda the smell, PLEASE HELP!
Priming is not the only reason to use a check valve.A check valve or a NRV (Non return valve) is used to prevent the backflow of fluid so it is a must & as commented by sslater069 nowadays NRV is builtin in most of the SUBMERSIBLE PUPMS.
***** Perhaps, _"needed"_ means something different to you. I _"need"_ to breath air in order to live. If govt decided not to require or provide permit anymore, guess what? Wells would still be dug. Why? Because wells have been dug for thousands of years without govt permission.
Most brand submersible pumps have a check valve built in (typically fail),so it is extremely wise to install a secondary check valve directly on top of the pump and another check valve for every 250' of drop pipe after. with out the check valve in the pump or on it the water WILL drain back threw pump and air will enter the line causing the plumbing to shake and bang etc.
I happen to have a dilemma regarding water under dry soil. is there such a device like a detector for water (kind of like those used to detect mines) that searches for a water source before it's drilled? if there is, what's it called? if none, how do we find a potential water source before it's drilled?
@jb0579 If it smells like natural gas, it just might be. Your best bet might be to have a local lab test a sample of the water to give you an indication of what minerals and or gases might be present. If you live on the edge of a swamp, you might be getting traces of ground water in your well and that could be due to a number of things, but primarily I'd think it would be a lack of grout around your surface casing. Hope this helps. - Tommy @ Fletcher Drilling, Inc. Colorado
I was at a nice home 3-5 months ago! And I saw some of the same stuff in this video! (Somewhat totally Greek to me but I had an idea how it was working!) I saw the storage tank water softener etc! A very impressive thing to witness! The home was an expensive one!!!! My friend googled the house at jus under ONE MILLION DOLLARS!😮 Guessing cost to install not cheap if u hav all d bells & whistles 🤔😲
With water being the most dire and necessary commodity we Humans must have, you can bet one day wells will be highly regulated. You may want to put this at the top of your list to be grandfathered in before things change. It will happen, in this life or the next.
Dasdfjkl that depends on the type of steel used and the water quality in the well as well as the wall thickness of the casing. most wells can expect a 15-20 year life before needing a liner or replacement when using steel casing. high salt content will shorten that to as little as 2-3 years.
I did say "most" i have seen many numerous wells that were drilled in the 1800s and never been relined and i have seen many that needed a liner after only 2 or so years. I work for an irrigation company in southern Az and we have wells from the 50's that look new (one of them has stainless steel casing) and we have a couple with a high salt content and thin wall pipe that get a new liner every 5 years
jakub goslin Really?! i haven't seen a cable tool used on a domestic well in years. i run a BE 36L at my company and maintain thier 3 36L's and 1 28L. i have worked with every model of cable tool bucyrus erie has offered. around here cable tools do mostly just work overs or agricultural new wells, rotary has taken over the market for domestic and most commercial new well construction.
it's always smart to not put your pump all the way down,,our well guys drilled a little extra, so we have a 20 foot resivor so the pump doesn't set in sedoment ...........jda
Ours has 20 or 30 feet as well. And even more above. When they built the house, the drillers went past the first reservoir so we don't even have to worry about dropping water levels even if we ever had any droughts anywhere near here.
Can someone answer me a question? We have a drilled well 90 meters deep, with a submersive pump at around 40 meters from the surface. I don't know the level of water in the well. I was told by the previous owner that we mustn't use water with too high flow for too long because the walls of the bottom filter can break in if there is not enough inner pressure from the water column. I don't really understand what he meant (after seeing how a well works). Is it really possible? Thanks for your help
hummer4700 I do water wells for a living, you usually set your submersive pump 5 feet or roughly 2 meters of the bottom of the hole, motor horsepower and pump end need to be the most adequate for you well too.
The higher pump rate means higher velocity of the water inflow, which may break the sieve wrapped up around the perforation tube or tubing a.k.a. filter, which leads to hydraulic collapse. More over, higher velocity of the inflow may drag the fine sand particles into filter what also is preferred to avoid in order to protect the submersible pump and prevent the sand blasting of your sieve. Btw, your data is insufficient whatsoever in respect of used materials and filter type. You should find someone to help you with step test (testing the well with at least 3 different pump rates from lower to higher along with measuring of the water level). This test will give you much more info needed to determine the quality of the well in regard to hydraulic losses, optimal pump rate and pump depth. Greeting from Serbia!
@@hummer4700 You welcome. However, it s far more complex issue than previously briefly explained...to me it always raises more questions than the answers but wasn t that what inspires the people of science the most? lol
This is true in Texas and California Sand alkaline soil acidic soil, some area have clay soil others have sandstone, the more closer you get to the mountains you come in contact with stone, rock.
+Danny Fry I am also a petroleum engineer and the water produced with hydrocarbon is known as brine water and it is very hazardous to drink.you grandpa must be talking about shallow water wells drilled for water usage which are different from oil wells.
@jb0579 sounds like manganese, they usually use greensand filters for that. Find a place to do some testing before spending any real money. Usually when you need to treat your water, it is for more than one thing. Different equipment does different things, and interacts differently, so if you run out and buy something it may be counterproductive if you have another problem.
it is not an open hole completion,it is a cased hole completion so the well can not collapse,the overburden pressure and the pore pressure at this depth does not exceed the collapse pressure.The hole they drilled into the earth they covered it with casing from top to bottom.
i realized there a little metal weight clamp you have to slide the line into about 5,6 feet down, was hard to see, but sall good, it works like a bathtub faucet, the water pressure keeps it tight.
That line is typically used with submersible pumps and leaves the casing underground, below the level of expected frost. Where I live that's 8 feet or so. A special 2 piece fitting called a pitless adapter (or a variation of that depending where you live) is installed to connect the horizontal supply pipe to the house with the drop pipe to the pump.. One piece is set in a hole in the casing, attached to the line to the house. The other piece is attached to the drop pipe. The two pieces fit together with a seal being formed by the weight of the drop pipe and pump. This system allows you to remove the pump for replacement.
In the septic tank. The solids in the septic tank break down naturally due to bacteria while the water is sent through a leach field back into the ground. The ground acts as a natural water filter so by the time that water gets down far enough down to have rejoined the aquifer it is clean as a whistle again.
An electric typically comes in from the top and is taped to the pipe that is connected to the well pump, and goes the length of the pipe to the well pump.
Average 200'..I did some research because I was thinking about building around Eureka Springs,AR..Average in Carroll county is a 1000'...cha-ching $$$$$$$$ :-(
Don't know what the average here is, but they went down to the second reservoir 90 to 100 or so feet when our house was built. Our pump is currently only 70 or so feet with even more water above it than below. It's a great lakes state and most people live along lake or ocean shores. Fewer people live in the middle of no where or in the mountain areas, where pumps might have to be deeper (I'm guessing).
water peculates through the soil and gets stopped by an semi impermeable layer called an aquitard. The water accumulates there and creates an aquifer and may begin to flow, or may not depending on the geology. You then set the well in the aquifer.
i would like to see how you would like living on a 1/2 gal a min well ,and when you sell the house I would like to see the buyers get a loan to buy the house. 2 gallons a min. is the real min.
Haney's Homestead yeah we always treated w hth tablets when we set one n the customer was supposed to drop a few down the well every few months. They go a long way.
' do have a water filter from the drilled well water... where is the water filter... how about the sewer waste system from the house... where the sewer going to
Sewage goes to a septic tank. A grandpa of mine had city sewage for a long time before he had city water. I don't know if it was by choice or they just didn't offer water till the area was more built up though. The house I was living in when I became an adult, had well water. When we moved in we had to cut out a section of the water pipe where it comes in to the basement and added a filter housing. We had to kind of make a square section of pipe so that the filter housing was upright, level, and far enough away from the wall for the filter housing to fit. They are inline whole house filters or something. Just turn off the pump, use up the water in the tank, then unscrew the bottom part to replace a foot long or so filter. The house also had a big water conditioner.
any one from Colorado its pricey and may take more then a year to get rights to even touch even rain water in Colorado but its a have to if you living in undeveloped land Colorado ether flood or drought or both need that water idk if this were this video represents.
SirRiehl the earth regenerates water!!! That’s why it’s called PRIMARY water. Rain/snow is secondary supply! We will NEVER RUN OUT OF WATER! Just think about waterfalls 🤔
Long time ago many people had a well on their properties! Today we live in a world of restrictions codes permits! To me it’s just another form of control & protecting one’s investment! (Cornering the market)! For some people the less you know…. the more job security they have! The more money they can make from any one else! Example: car industry! Making cars harder to repair at home etc!😮😅

how do I stop this?
could be a multitude of factors.
1) how deep the well was drilled generally the deeper the better quality water...the more shallow the more "rotten" egg smell which is sulfur and iron mixed
2) get it properly sampled at a lab, preferably your nearest county lab to find out what is in it. Could be high iron, or just certain quality of the water..get it tested then take appropriate action to have it filtered.
3) what kind of piping do you have in the house? copper? galvanized?
4) you COULD try undoing the bolts bolting down the cover of the well head and pour a gallon of chlorine down the casing pipe (yes literally) and then use a hose to hose down the inner walls
5)You could attach a filter system after the well to filter out usual suspects....but figure $30-60 every few months in filter change outs too
6) make sure the hot water heater anode/probe/dip rod in there isnt corroded...that'll give off a huge rotten egg smell if left unattended too or not changed
hmmm what else.....OH after you "shock" your well...flush it out for a while..to make sure you get that out of there

good explaination of process.
"Permits"? Consulting experts is great but getting "permission" from the "guvmunt" to dig a hole in the land you own is crap!
Don't let 'em find out though. No permit will result in yer well not being "up to code"!
***** Perhaps, _"needed"_ means something different to you.
I _"need"_ to breath air in order to live.
If govt decided not to require or provide permit anymore, guess what? Wells would still be dug. Why? Because wells have been dug for thousands of years without govt permission.

How long does the steel casing last before it rusts and puts rust into the water?
Dasdfjkl that depends on the type of steel used and the water quality in the well as well as the wall thickness of the casing. most wells can expect a 15-20 year life before needing a liner or replacement when using steel casing. high salt content will shorten that to as little as 2-3 years.

Nice
Average 200'..I did some research because I was thinking about building around Eureka Springs,AR..Average in Carroll county is a 1000'...cha-ching $$$$$$$$ :-(
I just did one in my property and it was 600'
Don't know what the average here is, but they went down to the second reservoir 90 to 100 or so feet when our house was built. Our pump is currently only 70 or so feet with even more water above it than below. It's a great lakes state and most people live along lake or ocean shores. Fewer people live in the middle of no where or in the mountain areas, where pumps might have to be deeper (I'm guessing).
Where does well water come from? Iv been asking for how many years....
rain
Water aquifers found underground
Water table.
water peculates through the soil and gets stopped by an semi impermeable layer called an aquitard. The water accumulates there and creates an aquifer and may begin to flow, or may not depending on the geology. You then set the well in the aquifer.
i would like to see how you would like living on a 1/2 gal a min well ,and when you sell the house I would like to see the buyers get a loan to buy the house. 2 gallons a min. is the real min.
So there's no treatment for virii or bacteria?
Haney's Homestead its called boil it 😲
Not if the water is clean no need. But a lot of people use a UV sanitizer system to kill any bad bugs.
Our water is pure, it was tested. We still have a filter though which is mostly for sand.
Haney's Homestead yeah we always treated w hth tablets when we set one n the customer was supposed to drop a few down the well every few months. They go a long way.
Purchase the land $67,000, septic tank for 25,000sq ft mansion, private well installation etc...$??? Or city water well????😶😱☺
Man, i just randomly tipped in well, and wonderd why this has over a million views...
'
do have a water filter from the drilled well water...
where is the water filter...
how about the sewer waste system from the house...
where the sewer going to
There is no filter only on the type of pump you get
And sewage just goes into a sewage tank
Sewage goes to a septic tank. A grandpa of mine had city sewage for a long time before he had city water. I don't know if it was by choice or they just didn't offer water till the area was more built up though.
The house I was living in when I became an adult, had well water. When we moved in we had to cut out a section of the water pipe where it comes in to the basement and added a filter housing. We had to kind of make a square section of pipe so that the filter housing was upright, level, and far enough away from the wall for the filter housing to fit. They are inline whole house filters or something. Just turn off the pump, use up the water in the tank, then unscrew the bottom part to replace a foot long or so filter. The house also had a big water conditioner.
any one from Colorado its pricey and may take more then a year to get rights to even touch even rain water in Colorado but its a have to if you living in undeveloped land Colorado ether flood or drought or both need that water idk if this were this video represents.
Great, fuye capacitor make it better
thanks

How do you not run out of water tf
When it rains all that water seeps back into the water table. That's why collecting rain water is illegal
SirRiehl the earth regenerates water!!! That’s why it’s called PRIMARY water. Rain/snow is secondary supply! We will NEVER RUN OUT OF WATER! Just think about waterfalls 🤔
@@CottageCupcake We can run out of drinkable water if we don't let the Earth recycle the water correctly
Cory Lynn that’s only if the well wasn’t drilled correctly.
Long time ago many people had a well on their properties!
Today we live in a world of restrictions codes permits!
To me it’s just another form of control & protecting one’s investment! (Cornering the market)!
For some people the less you know…. the more job security they have! The more money they can make from any one else!
Example: car industry! Making cars harder to repair at home etc!😮😅
