[@tinathrower284]

Had a plumber guy that Lowe's sent to my house wanted to charge me $2500 to swap out my well pump but i had to get the pump and everything else as well as prep the area including pull the pump. Im a disabled older woman. All he told me about what to purchase was "get a 1 hp 2 wire submersible pump, if you get a 3 wire get the box too". I had a 3 wire originally and knew nothing else of the well, it's the first time i had any problem with it, other than replacing the pressure switch a few years back, since i bought the place. I went straight to KZbin and found your channel to give me an idea of what i needed to get and thought if i gotta do all that i might as well do it myself. Needless to say that guy will never get my business, my son works for a grading co and borrowed the crane and between he, his wife and myself we got the job done. Went with the same thing i had .

[@earlestes8649]

That’s crazy expensive! I replaced one for a friend last year and his son helped me and pulling it out and going and getting the replacement took about five hours by the time we turned the new one on and I know I was cheap but I charged him 350 labor

[@jenniferwhitewolf3784]

I considered expanding my spring water tank from 500g to 2500g. The contractor gave me a rough price of $4k. He said it would take longer than a 12-hour day, so it would be two days. He broke down the costs: labor, machine costs, and materials. I did not do it as it was not worth it to me. This was one of the first jobs he quoted me. Since I understood his costs, I have had him out several times for 1 and 2 day jobs. It was because of his openness and the way he finishes jobs that he comes out twice a year for a day project. (He slips me between his bigger jobs, so I get a better rate, but I only get a 2 or 3 day notice.)

That would have been very easy for you to do. I like that you made it clear what he needed to resolve his problem but at the same time made it clear he got what he paid for. So many people try to make someone else look bad thinking it's making them look better. Nice JOB!!!

Crazy how people do things differently in different places. Here in Maine we always use 1" black polyethylene and pitiless adapter at least 6 feet deep. Only time I see a cap like that is an old well someone has in the basement

[@chucknSC]

But you are in Maine where you have what some people call a “frost line”. Where I live, most people have never heard of a frost line and our wells are always capped above ground like this video.

[@arthurr8670]

I'm still surprised there isn't a pitless adapter if there is a chance of freezing. You aren't adding that much to the cost of the well, but you never have to think about the outside portion of the well.

[@djkdawg]

I don't have a well, but I have learned alot about them from you.

[@robtheisen5844]

Dude you have been such a big help to me as a service plumber! Is there any way that you could do a video on testing the condition electrical insulation of the submersible wire and motor windings down the well casing, after you disconnect the wires running underground from the house, with a multimeter or megger? It would be nice to be able to tell my customers that either A: you’ve got a problem with the submersible wire, or B: you’ve got a problem with the pump motor itself. Is there a number, say in ohms, that I should be looking for… like if it’s below 1.5 ohms your pump or cable has (or is going bad). Teach us you ways professor!

[@h2omechanic]

Simply use a clamp style amp meter. If you have 240v at the well head & 0 amps, it's a broken wire. If you get amps above 9.5-16 then it's a bad pump. If you get 7 amps & 240v & no water, then its broken pipe down the hole. If you get 3.5amps, (low) then the pump splines are stripped out. I never do it any other way.

Instead of a weld blob restricting travel along the thread of that bolt thread, use a nylok nut at the end.

[@robertwatson818]

3/4 is likely used as a false money saving function. In my area in older houses it would not be uncommon to find 1/2 inch to the house in older houses built pre-code. Many people did their own construction. The mind set was--if water comes out of the faucet in the house---all is good and we ain't spending no more money!!

I find plenty of those cost saving measures around our poorly built house. Just got done removing a kitchen sink slip ptrap from the shower. I presume it was an extra that they had lying around.

Do you ever use pitless adapters for the plumbing connections on the wells there?

[@h2omechanic]

Only when asked by customer. State law requires water sample port at well head. Install a pitless then requires me to install a yard hydrant. Just more expensive. If I drive 4 hours north, all wells become pitless.

[@zenithperigee7442]

@@h2omechanic , it's good to see you're feeling better. You mentioned "state law" which made me think about code & inspection. I wondered, you suggest that whoever ran the supply piping from the pump to the house undersized it & I would agree but I would've thought this would be regulated by code. So how can it pass an inspection with undersized piping or is this more about "minimum to meet code" versus "ideal"? Btw great to see Mandy and Ginger! ^_^

Vevor has some good products - but they have their fair share of junk also. That well camera appears to be working out, and I have a Vevor chamber vacuum sealer that works great. But they also sell a stand-alone vacuum pump that doesn't work (see the HVAC Guy channel about that) and they sell a man cage that goes over pallet forks that is a lightweight piece of garbage (Good Works Tractors reviewed that gem). With Vevor products, I take the approach of looking for review videos on KZbin from folks that have had/used the product for a period of time before I decide to buy it. Take care and God Bless.

[@paulmaxwell8851]

There's nothing wrong with the design. The problem is the homeowner who thinks he should unscrew all four bolts all the way. Even as a newbie, years ago, I never made that mistake.

[@viennatech]

I love your videos, informative and easy to watch. However I have a small issue with you calling out the 3/4” supply pipe. The well plate says it’s a 2 gpm well. So why waste $ on a 1” or whatever to flow at 10-12 gpm when you’re not meant to flow more than 2? Perhaps they sized the pipe based on the rated flow and not on the ideal 10 gpm.

[@h2omechanic]

It creates unnecessary head pressure against the pump trying to force water thru that small pipe. 3/4" pex is cts which means it's actually smaller than typical 3/4" black roll & 3/4" pvc. Think of it as 1/2" pvc. Bc 1/2"pvc beside 3/4" pex look the same size. Pex is measured by cts (copper tubing size) . It works, but its really undersized. The pump here can provide probably 9-10gpm with proper plumbing

[@ecaparts]

That PEX water feed looks totally unprofessional. Each PEX fitting further restricts the flow since the fittling is designed to go inside the pipe. Also, I'm pretty sure PEX is not supposed to be direct burried in the ground either.

[@lo1234-w9r]

@@davebrunson125 You're right about it being a dry hole. The stated well capacity is 2 gpm, most of that water looks like it's being produced from overburden leaking into the bottom of the well casing. If he seals off the bottom of that casing, the well will produce little if any water. That is probably the reason the drillers didn't cement up the casing, they suspected it was a dry hole.

[@PowderMill]

⚠️ As an electrical contractor for over 30 years, I shuddered when I saw that “1900” (4” square) electrical junction box being used OUTDOORS! I know virtually nothing about wells and water pumps used in a residential environment as my work area is a suburban metro area with municipal water supply. Great channel and video. Thank you.

[@cybernoid001]

Not sure about where they are at, but in my area, Wells are required to have an electrical disconnect at the location of the well itself. Normally just the well pump control box works, as you lift the lid and it separates the connection, but I had a 2 wire pump 110v and my uncle who is a licensed electrician used a simple light switch to make the disconnect until I could upgrade to a 3 wire pump and use the well pump control box with the capacitor. But we also have a shed the well, pressure tank and electrical are all in. I would recommend this guy build a small shack to protect the well, instead of using that igloo as a cover.

[@PowderMill]

@@cybernoid001 yes.. an enclosure would be very advantageous. The 1900 style junction box is only approved and safe to use in indoor and where no moisture exists. They are constructed of steel and have multiple holes for mounting screws and grounding screw(s). They also have a ton of knockouts that offer ample room for water to pour right in. I’d use uni-strut to build out a “frame” to mount all of the electrical and control gear. I’d also add a service receptacle (GFCI protected of course) which is a NEC requirement for service personnel AND a fused disconnect for the pump motor itself. Like you mentioned… The use of an overall protective enclosure makes tremendous sense and would keep the weather out, keep animals away, keep the damn evil neighbor kids out 🤡, etc.

And how come casing isn't required all the way down to the pump? Thx for all your great content!!

[@AP-hz8or]

the crack is at 70 ft any crack above the 400 may leak in ground water

[@mofbombay6290]

They set casing down to bedrock , below that it's a rock casing.

[@PowderMill]

⚠️ CORRECTION - “People’s Republic of New Jersey” and NOT “NJ”. 🤣 (I grew up in Essex Fells and moved to Morris County years back) One quick recommendation… I’m an electrical contractor and have a bunch of customers with wells. Most of them were installed by the same well co. working for a developer. They were all given Berkey Black gravity water filter units (I believe they are the “Royal Berkey” models). There were apparently no contaminants detected but they all state that the drinking water tastes much better using the filter vs. without. After seeing this and speaking with most of the residents, I bought one for my own home. We have municipal water and it’s supposedly “tested & OK”, but it really smells horribly like chlorine. The water is actually drinkable when using the Berkey filter. I think we got the larger model?? I never could drink the tap water here and used to buy spring water for drinking and cooking. Now, I drink the water and love it! Good luck. 👍🏼😀

They go to factories that just make products and simply provide marketing, warehousing, shipping, packaging, etc to sell that product inside China and internationally. But at the same time they assess the need of products and what does well and they circle back to those factories to help them adjust the product to fit the market.

I went out and looked in the pump house, and the system has a 20-40 pressure switch. The bladder tank rings when I knock on it and no water comes out the Schrader valve. When I pressure tested the tank, it was at 62 psI. I know that's way out of spec for what the setting should be, but how have I lived here for five years and never had an issue with my water pressure? I reduced the air pressure in the tank to 18 PSI, but now the pump seems to short cycle and my pressure is less. Additionally, the water is coming out kind of dirty and cloudy. I took the cap off of the well casing and shined a light down inside. I did not see any water spraying from a crack in a pipe, nor did I hear any type of leak. Can you give me any suggestions as to on what's going on?

you will need to camera it just like was done here, you can rent one

Is is possible for a pump the break the casing of a well? When the pump stops there is a loud water hammer. Also, when the pump starts, i think it wiggles a lot in the well, hitting and smashing the walls. What do you think? Thank you!

[@gorillaau]

Sounds doubtful. Water hammer is usually along the pipe itself.

Also that's PEX-B so the ID of the fittings are smaller than 3/4" so that's an additional restriction. If it was PEX-A the ID of the fittings would be the same as the pipe.

Sir, I want to know from you how many HP of pump do I need a 400ft deep well for my diy work. Thanks and God bless

What is the static water level & gpm

[@curtisharlan9230]

Where are you located

[@paulcoulter7181]

Hey H2O have you ever watched James Butler well and sewer services?

[@anthonyzarcone8696]

What if he hooked up a ozone system in the well.would that clear it up.

[@kyledieterle1466]

I wonder if they ran the 3/4" line to the house as a flow restrictor, seeing as the Well only made 2 GPM. If the demand is great enough, it could easily run the well dry.

Them are some good looking helpers riding in the back seat and floorboard… I bet they never want a day off..

In a climate that freezes I can’t believe that you are not required to use pitiless adapters and bury the water line below the frost line

[@waraynon3500]

Hello from Philippines. May i know what’s the specific name of that camera and may you please help me where i could purchase? Also, may i know the name of that assembly casing cover? Thanks a lot.

[@self_made-self_paid2143]

Camera brand is Vevor.....He also made another video about camera....Vevor sent it to him

[@arthurr8670]

I just want to know, if you're well can freeze, why isn't a pitless adapter used in that area? We have water all year, don't worry about the well casing, or underground piping, even when the temperature goes negative. I understand you don't get that cold, but i feel like someone would pay extra not to have to deal with making sure the well doesn't freeze.
