    Wow very impressive, it's amazing what we could think of when your by yourselves in the woods, great job guy's, you worked together like a Well oiled machine. I just had my pump replaced, it to was over 400' long it cost me a little bit of cash. Wish I would of seen this earlier I definitely would and could of did it myself. With the help of my wife also. I should be good for a few years now, but in the future I will do this my self. Thanks great video

    I see this vid was from a couple years ago. Everything still good?
    I need to pull my pump and im looking for inspiration and tips. Previous owner bought this house in 1996 and there was no records of when the pump was installed even then and they never had to touch it. It still works but foot valve won't hold anymore and it hammers hard when it starts. But after 27+ years, I guess it doesn't owe anything!
    Gearing up to do this myself. Got a tractor some skills and the ambition!

      @MrBriansAmazingWorld  11 місяців тому

      Just take your time and plan to have a way to hold the weight so you don't have to. All is good since and hopefully for years to come. Saved a fortune! Just a tip if you want better water pressure use a stronger pump. Wish I went even bigger!

    Personally, I would’ve gone ahead and replaced the pump after all that work, and maybe kept the old pump for a last resort emergency backup…maybe remove the tree while it’s still small 😁

      Well 2 months later I had to pull the pump and replace it. $800 later for the pump. All our pumps went this year. Septic, well and circulator pumps. Got 22 years out of them. Luckily I still had this setup made and it went pretty quick and smooth. And I thought about changing it the first time but....$800 and it still worked fine. Most of my stuff has a don't replace until it can't be cobbled together anymore policy.

      @@MrBriansAmazingWorld yep definitely, good stuff. Here in SA we use a 3 core submersible cable that runs all the way down the sleeve so we very seldom have the cable being damaged as it is well insulated. In addition we run a nylon ski type rope along with the pump so as not to put any stress on the cable when removing the pump.

    warm up in the next 2-3 weeks. Same deal, just me and my wife. I have just about all
    the supplies. I've been watching H2O Mechanic and a few others. Good luck to me.

    • @MrBriansAmazingWorld
      @MrBriansAmazingWorld  2 роки тому +2

      They way I set it up the harder it pulled forward the more it dug the front angled 2x4s into the ground holding it in place.

  • @REVNUMANEWBERN

    Looks like a great idea, I'm wondering if it would be a good idea when putting in a pump that it would be a good idea to attach stainless steel cable to the pump itself & run the cable to the top just for situations like this???

    • @MrBriansAmazingWorld
      @MrBriansAmazingWorld  3 роки тому +2

      Nylon rope seams to hold up and work fine. There are plenty of people counting on the pipe and wire alone to hold their pump. Stainless steel would be expensive too. I'm sure it would work.

    I'm thinking the wiring got screwed as you pulled up ????

    • @MrBriansAmazingWorld
      @MrBriansAmazingWorld  3 роки тому +2

      The wiring being screwed up was the reason we had to pull it in the first place. I only pull from the rope that is attached to the pump.

    That was impressive! What diameter was the was water pipe and what diameter rope did you use to pull and lower the pump...Im getting stuff together to drop a pump 380ft.

    • @MrBriansAmazingWorld
      @MrBriansAmazingWorld  3 роки тому +1

      The pipe is 1 inch and the rope should be 5/16 being that deep. Take your time, putting it is much easier than having to it up full of water.

    I'm new to this but why are you letting trees grow next to the well?

    • @MrBriansAmazingWorld
      @MrBriansAmazingWorld  2 роки тому +3

      I like to get any tree I can to grow. Especially these hardwood trees. These are ash trees and they are all dying from the emerald ash borer. The deer eat all the other baby hardwood trees too. Also the trees won't hurt the well it is 600 feet deep and has metal casing running to bedrock. Tree roots will affect septic fields, pipes, and foundations however.

      I think you need more spacers. Those nylon well tubing wiring protectors are pretty cheap to have them every 10 feet. You can't have enough installed knowing what the pump starts can do to the tubing movement. @@MrBriansAmazingWorld
