No way on earth was that enough air to bring anything from the bottom of a 100' well. You stirred it up at best.

Needs a Tee on top with 3-4 feet of horizontal pipe so you can actually see what is coming out. No torque arrestor or centering guides either.

Okay couple problems here. 100-foot well, and it was clean obviously. The well wire will not wear out by a careless pump guy jamming It Down in the Hole. Well wire wear out because you were not using a torque arrestor, and every time that pump starts a gives it a twist. That twisting is what where's the wire out. At least put a torque arrestor on it for god sakes. You guys just laid 100 ft of 1 inch pipe in the dirty grass, then jammed it back in the well. Nice way to add animal poop, and bacteria. Something tells me you guys have ground water seeping into that well. Do a pH test, if it test as an acid you may have groundwater contamination.

Pretty cool. Tell me about your solar array. How big is it? Does it provide more than enough of your power? Off grid? Grid Tied with battery back up. Very interested. BTW I have a 200' well and want to do this myself. Pull it, blow it out. I'm getting more sediment than I want. My issue? I have 1 1/4" PVC pipe I do believe and really like the way the black pipe goes down and it pulled without joints. Do you recommend this black pipe? Would you swap out if you have PVC pipe? Tks

All the water brought up looks nice and clean. Other videos show sand and silt being pumped for hours before it comes out clean. I think our well is silted up. I believe it’s about 230 feet. Every summer when we are in drought conditions (more and more frequent) our well only produces for about 15-30 minutes before it starts drawing down and short cycling. Last summer, our well guy said he’d lower the pump. Found out it’s already on the bottom. Now, I do not believe it’s on the bottom of the well. I’m pretty sure it’s sitting on silt that has built up in the 35 years since it was drilled. I suggested he “blow it out.” He said that all he can do it drill a new well! That doesn’t seem right. He should be able to blow out the silt to get down to the original bottom, or maybe bore it out, don’t you think? I’ve got references to two other well service companies in the area. I’ll see what they have to say.

Have you gotten an answer to your question? I'm in Florida and am buying a house with a well that's pumping silt. I've been doing research it sounds like you'll probably want to drill deeper though because if you're at the bottom it's a matter of time.

Most painful video ever. 22 year Driller here. Those people are NOT Drillers. They are doing that the hard way. Also it's called Airlifting you morons. Also the Pitless Adapter did nothing to drilling. Except make it more of a pain I the ass. Now uou need a special Pitlrss Adapter. Before you could fix it with stuff from a local store. This video is painful to watch. Oh don't hit the air all at ince... why not. He'll that well was drilled with 1100/350 most likely. That little compressor isn't going to hurt anything. Lmfao

OK QUESTION . I had a 10 year old well pump go bad and plumber put in another new pentair pump and never checked wiring when they checked the pump they only got 3 ounces of water a minute and plled up the pump to find out it broke in half so replaced the pump with another paentai 1 hp pump , But then never flushed my pressure tank or hot water heater . 40 gallon pressure tank was a couple of years old but had been flushed out when new whole house water filter was put in 4 months before . This destroyed the new whole house water filter again with sludge and the pressure tank was filled with brown sludge also now worried about my 3 year old hot water heater. Not sure why the pump went out the first time and drained the well . The well is 400 feet deep So far this has cost me over 4thousand dollars . I am retired and this is horrible .This new old whole house filter replace one that was 10 years old and showing it's age so replaced it and then replaced it and now replace it again Instead of a plumber should I have called a well driller instead and saved myself this headache . Well was put in 2004 when I retired to va in my new modular home

Never hire a plumber to do a Drillers job. Sludge? You should not be having sludge Also flushing the pressure tank and water Heater is not normal practice. If you are getting enough solids to clog things. Stop buying pumps and call a Driller to check your well out. It may need what they are doing in this video. Airlifting is what it's called. Also may need a screen installed inside your well to stop the sludge. Plumbers can't do any of that.

Also here is a huge hint for ya. Rent that compressor from any rental place. Goto Hime Depot and get some black roll and do it yourself. Save yourself a small fortune. Literally pull the pump. Put the black roll to the bottom and blast it with air and see what comes out. If your well is full of sand you will see it come out.

@@johngorman-xt8sh it came from the well pump going bad and draining the well dry . The wiring was bad on the pump and if the plumbers had listened to me and checked the wiring , because something had to happen to make the well pump do this . Then since they did not check the wiring the well pump they put down there would not have blown in half and tripped the circuit breaker also . I had a new breaker put in for well pump after that just incase . I was told by a well driller here that it was a plumbing problem and only learned from these videos that it was not a plumbing problem , but a well driller videos on here convinced me I SHOULD HAVE CALLED A WELL DRILLER one that wanted to work and not the one I called in GRETNA VA that told me to call a plumber LIVE AND LEARN . i WAS TOO WORRIED ABOUT HUBBY IN THE HOSPITAL TO THINK STRAIGHT
