Well for garden irrigation

Hi,

where do you live? I could lend you my drilling device, which fits dismantled in any station wagon. If there is no big stone, it will be done on a Saturday.

Hi, quite centrally between Stuttgart and Munich. What drilling diameter do you have? Thank you very much!!! How much water can you pump from the drilled well?

hmm too bad, it's probably a bit too far away (Koblenz). I have 20cm and 10cm diameter. Since my pump only manages 10,000 l/h, I don't even know how much more would be possible. The best thing we've done so far at a friend's place was digging out a well and setting concrete rings. With a pump from the fire department, 30,000 liters were no problem. But with 5,000 liters, most should be fine with a drilled well. I wouldn't recommend hammering, it's neither fish nor fowl.

But with 5,000 liters most should already manage well with a borehole well. I wouldn't recommend pounding, it's neither fish nor fowl.

yeah, it's a bit of a distance. from the procedure, as I have understood it so far with drilling wells yourself: - you drill with the rod extensions until you hit water - afterwards the blue pipes along with the filter are lowered and at the very end you fasten the blue pipe with wooden beams and weigh it down and start plunschen - if, for example, I hit water at 7 meters, I plunsche another 3 meters - pipe setup from bottom to top: 1 meter pipe with closure - 2 meter filter section - 7 meter pipe (which filter size?) - should one build a pulley with a ladder above the borehole for plunschen, or does it work like this too? - what is still unclear, some write about working with KG pipe...? does that make sense? what's the advantage then? how do you proceed there? PS: Alex124 thanks anyway for the offer!

Hi, I can only reply briefly right now.

The KG pipe is used only as an auxiliary pipe so that not too much soil slips and falls down in the hole to the groundwater. You have to decide on site depending on the conditions whether you need it or not. Ideally, it goes 4 meters down from the water. The pipe setup is a matter of belief; I would leave it open at the bottom. From bottom to top in the water -> 1m pipe, 2m filter section with 0.3mm slots, 1m pipe. Plunging without help like a winch, pulley, etc., you will hardly manage; it will all be very hard, don’t wear yourself out with it. Make sure you have enough weights. There can easily be half a ton resting on it. Better to mount a protective steel ring at the lower pipe, otherwise, the pipe can break at that point.

- what is still unclear, some write about working in the KG pipe...?

Hello

it is a so-called working pipe. This is necessary when you have subsiding (gravel etc.) material. You can drill as much as you want, you won't get any further. That’s why a working pipe (a 175 mm KG pipe, for example) is used, and you drill through this KG pipe. You remove material, bring it up, and the KG pipe sinks deeper before the other material can subsist again. As soon as water comes in, you have to plunge in the well pipe anyway. It works exactly the same way. Material with water into the plunger, pull it up, and the well pipe sinks deeper.
I would use one meter of "normal" well pipe, then 2 to 3 filter pipes, and the rest normal well pipe. The lowest well pipe remains open at the bottom. When everything is done, you throw in special granulate. That seals downward so that no material is sucked in and the pipe does not get dirty from the inside.
That was the short version.
