Hi All,

I still haven't resolved my methane problem with the new drilled well, I've put a lot of thought into the problem and I'm finding out that most plumbers/plumbing supply outlets look the...

Bob,

I had seen the website you suggested. Even though I'm sure it works, the system it and you describe seems quite involved. Can I assume most people just live with the methane? Otherwise I...

Hi All,

I have a new drilled well I just finished hooking up for my residential service. The well is in shale and contains sulfur. I hooked up my chlorination system I used on my old dug well...

I have a new drilled well. Due to logistical reasons, the supply pipe was fed into the opposite side of the cellar from where the old pump/softener, and chlorinator (not so sure I need that now, but...

Hi All,

Back in the summer I wrote on this forum about the ills of my two dug wells. At this point, the driller is here and down to 115 feet and so far 3 1/2 gal/min. My question, due to where...

I understand your thinking regarding dowsers Bob, but as I said, when one is looking for a ray of hope to find water, I'll go on whatever I can grasp. May it be an aquafir or not, since the one...

As far as the dowsers,...

There is air in the suction pipe of the one well but it being 200 ft from the house and pump, I'm not about to attempt to find it at this point. It is usable though and I'm living with the air...

The two pieces of clear pipe are vynyl but are only a few inches in length and I don't believe are causing the problem. I just put them in to confirm what's going on in the lines (seeing air...

Hi Bob,

The whole issue here is that I did not want to get involved in changing the footvalves on either pipedrop, that can be costly. I just want to be able to use both wells and limp along here...

To make a long story short, I have two wells, we'll call them well #1 and well #2, both dug and both have problems. I have had a 2 pump system but since pump #1 on well #1 went bad, I now have both...
