I am a former water well technician, I haven't watched the whole video yet, but i skipped to the end to answer some of my first questions and I will comment on that for now, then I will watch the whole video. Good call on raising the pipe above the ground, having it below ground level in those concrete rings was just causing more headaches that they were solving and also a potential contamination source for your well if the water from the surrounding ever overflowing into you well. in Canada here the standard is 24" of pipe above ground level, along with a sealed cap pitless that even if submerged would now allow water in. Park of the work I used to do aside from drilling water wells (in Ontario), was Hydrofracturing underperform wells. I think this is what you were trying to go for by clearing sediment. We had basic but specific equipment to perform this procedure. Essentially we would have this piece of equipment called a packer that we would attach to some 2" pipe and 2000' psi hose. It's essentially a pipe with a rubber bag on the bottom portion of it. When its lowered to the desired depth, we would then inflate that bag would pump some plumbers antifreeze (in the 2000psi line) to hold it into position, once firmly in position we would attach a fitting at the top side to the 2" pipe and connect it to a HD water pump and fill the well with water. Initially you may see the well will stat at (this is just an example) 1200 psi, it may stay there for a few seconds or few minutes, but eventually you will see that psi drop, and the means the fissures in the well have opened up. You would continue to repeat this procedure for a few different zones and in the end the well will produce more water at a higher rate.

@Objectified
@Objectified 6 ай бұрын
@@Jonathan1234000 No. Correct application of teflon tape doesn't prevent minor thread adjustments, in fact it's arguably more forgiving of such. And using teflon tape itself makes it much less likely you're going to make a mistake and need to adust the threads in the first place. Add in the fact that you're typically going to use teflon tape with tape pipe dope and you've got a fantastic, durable seal. Nothing wrong with flax, and flax or hybrid flax seals can be great for higher -pressure applications, but most non-industrial seals don't require it.,

I work with well drilling in Norway, interesting to see how you solve this stuff in Sweden. A few takeaways from this is that if you want to wash sediment from the well it would probably be better to use your compressor and raise/lower the PE pipe while doing it. Maybe even blocking it off on the end and drilling holes around the side and do it with reduced pressure. Dynamite is always fun, but I'd think you would need a lot more than one stick to really do anything. When we blow out water wells to increase the flow/feed rate the normal amount is around 40-50kg of explosives!

If dealing with mud and sediment is common for you, consider getting a "Venturi Sludge Pump". They're capable of rapidly handling large volumes of water, mud, and even gravel, which pass right through the pump as it works a little like when you were using compressed air to flush the well bore. You could have used one to continuously pump the mud that was sliding into your pit out, as well as (if it was a small enough one) put it all the way down to the bottom of your well bore and pumped out all the sediment.

Oh man this brought out a few suppressed memories for me :) A few years back I helped a friend replace the water line going from the well casing to the house. Similar soil composition (we're in Alaska). Had all the same issues you've had trying to dig around the well casing to get to the pitless adapter (that's what we call it in the States) and the soil would just settle back into the pit we're digging and filling up with water. It was a nightmare to work in. At one point my friend almost got buried alive in the pit when it started collapsing on him. Unfortunately we didn't have access to dynamite, it would've been fun to drop it into 230 foot well :)

Then tightening it to the threads with your hand, as if you're trying to screw it on. If the thread is sharp, use a cloth. It should stay in place. If it doesn't, score the threads with a fine metal hand saw blade.

Best for "black" (heating) or galvanized steel pipes (tap water) where you cut threads on it. Especially great for larger diameter threads because it's dirt cheap material and it will seal super good for a very, very long time. I mean it's good for generations. Because oil polymerizes after some time and semi hardens, locks joints in place.

Almost all installs of wells here in the US have the pressure switch outside with the pump.

As many others commented, wrap the thread sealer in the clockwise direction. Even if you dislike water without chlorine, after working on your well its a must for a one shot treatment to kill off whatever drifted in during the work. That one shot chlorination would have possibly cleaned up the E-coli microorganisms for testing. Regardless of well work cleanup, the shallow well is very near the river, probably lots of infiltration from an unknown source (River water). Hope the well cleans up, drinking it as is its for certain you won't be needing to buy many laxatives. This USA KZbin professional water well guy, "H20 Mechanic" uses swimming pool shock to one shot chlorinate wells after reworking. Scary watching all the AC power tools and loose extension cords while wading around in the mud.

FYI attaching a short stick of stainless pipe with a couple holes drilled into it at the end of the poly pipe works better then just open ended pipe also adding a hand valve near the well so you can cycle the air when flushing makes the job easier. We also pump about 100lbs of NuWell 110/130 or similar mixed with 90 gallons of water and let that sit for 48 hrs in the bottom of the well before air blasting. I also noticed you didnt chlorine shock the well in the video and would recommend doing this anytime your disturbing the well. just a couple suggestions from someone who spend 3 yrs drilling and servicing irrigation, municipal, and rural wells, but overall decent job!

If you ever decide to move to the USA please move to Texas you will fit right in here. No need to bring your own dynamite we have plenty! 😂🤣

Man that excavator bucket is so versatile 😊❤😊 with that swivel 😊 glad you are showing videos of it usage, have seen them a big con- expo shows, but that was just static moving of objects, no real world digging.

My grandfather from Sweden dug a lot of wells. He died in 1965. His wells and houses are still being used.

you may consider a filtration system under the sink, a cartridge type makes it very easy to change, your thread sealer (teflon tape,etc.) should wrap around fittings in the same direction as your pipe fittings, it keeps the sealer in the groves, or it may unwind, you do very well for just one person with your work.

My Swedish granddad was blind on one eye, and deaf in one ear, from dynamite blasts. He used it to remove stumps, and rocks, when building roads. We found an old dynamite box in the wood shed. It is a Swedish invention after all! 🙂

You’re going to run into trouble with that brass T with galvanized strap in contact. Galvanic action will erode that fitting. Things are SO VERY DIFFERENT here in Canada. Cheers!

You seem to be an expert using the excavator. You should apply working for Parker in Gold Rush tv series.😀 Great video, I enjoyed watching it all the way through. You are very handy. The only thing I would add would be a complete house filtering system to filter iron, manganese, etc. I have that in my well house. Oh, and I would suggest building a well house enclosure to protect from the weather elements. Most in Americas have those over their wells with a covered opening on the roof just in case the pump and pipe need to be serviced later.

I used to worry that young people were loosing touch with many lessons from the past. That many people would become incapable of sustaining themselves, because many “modern” people had become dependent on provided services. And watching TikTok or whatever was not doing much but providing juvenile entertainment. Thankfully the WWW is still good source of sharing ideas and lessons and methods of operating and installing different systems. Thanks for sharing some ideas, that was a fun video.

Another great video! Love the dynamite! (You knew I would) …. But I agree with another commenter…. How did you know it (dynamite) would not harm the pipe! I think you must love being buried in MUD! This is the second video where the ground just wishes swallow you up! 😂 A suggestion for a video …. You showed in the truck inspection video of driving by the Arctic Circle…. How about a plain educational video for southern people? Here in Texas, i could not even imagine what someone living in the Arctic Circle would be doing! When does your winter start? How cold does it get in average days? How do you keep an outside water well from freezing during the winter? I know probably stupid questions to you but us southern people would be curious! 😊 Waiting for the compressor video you said you would be releasing!
