Great video mr brother! I think what you're talking about is called hydraulic fracturing or hydro-fracking and it is the process where they dig deeper pass the surface rocks they encounter to go deeper to reach a better pool of water. Most boreholes dug can easily reach the water above the rocks and the water can be a large pool or a shallow one. The shallow ones can easily face the problem Elvis is describing. You can also face that problem if the pump is left on for an extended period of time without pumping water because the tank(s) are full and this can lead to the electrical connection blowing fuse Also, I think the digging is in meters not feet, so 100 meters, the length of a football field but sometimes they can reach the water before they get that far. If they go farther than 100 meters without reaching the water, some companies charge extra for every extra pipe being used. If you can, I'll advise you get a Pedrollo pump which may add a few 1000s of cedis to the cost but worth with it because that pump is the best when it comes borehole
@@IbrahimOsmanBansi It depends how many rocks are underneath the land in your area. Once you pass the rocks, they won’t be any need to keep digging since they would already be in the water
was seaside gravel stone put in the hole? the gravel stone is put into the hole to purify the water and such case like your ua-cam.com/video/3hL59Rz-2hg/v-deo.htmlsi=7fYsj6P1D5FVo5yE watch this video for better understanding at the end
Hello Thanks very much for your video, I learnt a lot. So does the pricing include all the things they needed? Or u have to buy the pump and other things separately?
Hi Mr Elvis, i trust you are doing great, i have my house at kasoa and i was told the sodium or salt level is too high. Neighbours complain bitterly about that. Is there somethong that can be done about it ? Can reverse osmosis solve the problem? If yes, can you please give me a rough estimate for that ? Thank you for the informative update. God bless you 🙏
When i turn on my pump, it takes about 35 minutes to notice that the water is not coming all that much then i off it. After switching it off, there u will hear a sound from the pump making pooon poon poooon poon ...in 10 to 15 minutes then the sound stops. Then i turn it on again for 35 minutes..... So in almost one hour a 1,500 litres of polytank is full. Is it normal ..... I called those who drilled it n they told me unless we commercialize it by lowering the pump deep down a bit....

What a great education my brother wooww
Thank you for the explanation. We learn something new everyday.
Pls so it means 150 meters can produce much water than 100 meters right

@@Bilegagngood education. How do I remove obstacles from my borehole
Thanks Alvis
Absolutely amazing, l am glad l came across this channel.
I have learnt so much 👍
It's difficult for the pump to go inside the casing
Good info
Very informative, thanks
you welcome 🙏🏽
Good job Elvis
Hello Mr Elvis
my borehole was installed recently
the water coming out has started smelling
any solution
was seaside gravel stone put in the hole? the gravel stone is put into the hole to purify the water and such case like your ua-cam.com/video/3hL59Rz-2hg/v-deo.htmlsi=7fYsj6P1D5FVo5yE watch this video for better understanding at the end
if that was than and you still encountering this issue then you need to find a water treatment and filtration company to handle it for you.
How much is drinking water and
My borehole consumed 13 of the blue pipes (casing) meaning my borehole went deep to how many feets or metres please.
The length of 1 pipe is 10 feet.
130 feet or 39.6 metres
Can one use a generator as a source of electricity to pump, if one doesn't have electricity at the site?
Yes please
Absolutely! Especially in rural farming communities where there is no electricity supply, using a petrol generator is very Common and normal.
Yes, you can use a generator
Sure, but it depends on the capacity of the generator
Why do some borehole water taste salty? What is the cause.
the area in which your land is ….if there is a sea or river around, there is high possibility that your land will be salty
This part is included to price of the borehole?
This is good bro ❤
absolutely but now there is price update though 😉
Hello
Thanks very much for your video, I learnt a lot.
So does the pricing include all the things they needed? Or u have to buy the pump and other things separately?
everything is included in the price
I have similar problem at my site
Pls can I get your contact?
if you facing similar issue try and look for a Hydrofracture company to handle it for u
Does hydro fracture provide permanent solution for dry borehole ?

Bro pls can i have your number?

i’m sorry but i have less knowledge about that treatment.
You need a water softner filter
RO is quite expensive to manage for a household
Please Mr Benson, what inch for the submersible ? Is it a 2 - 2,5 - 3 - 4 or more inches ?? Thank you.
What happens when the water turns brown. Can anything be done
Let overflow
Eventually the clean and clear one will come then you add chemicals
@@ElvisBensonplease how do you add the chemical? Pls can u do a video on that. Because I want to disinfect my water.
@@richardamoako0707 put it in the polytank

the pump must be removed and serviced.
What’s the cost to drill a borehole
¢18,000 comes with borehole pipes and pump
I love this.
100 meters or 100 feet
❤❤
You keep stating 100ft in the video but i believe you intend to say 100meters.
thank you
