I feel the pain of a low producing well. 400' deep, pump is set around 350', 1.5 gallons a minute, with about 300 gallons available. Been dealing with it for over 30 years and we even have an inground pool. Had water trucked in for the initial fill-up but very mindful when adding water by doing it gradually so the well can recover. One of the biggest users of water is the wasing machine. Went with a front loader that uses about a1/3 of what a top loader needs per load. I don't mind so much the lack of flow as long as the supply is there. If that happens, fracking will be my go to solution. Which, btw, never even heard of it being done with residential wells until I saw it here.

Great camera work and editing. Appreciate all your work on these videos. Nothing else even close on KZfaq.

Very interesting.

Nice equipment

Your videos get better with every one you make. I feel blessed, my well is 640 feet and get 18 gallons a minute, drilled in 2003 for $4800. Neighbor across the road just had his drilled, 680 feet and 18 gallons, but $29,000.

I'm glad to hear Ms. Mandy is doing well. They are like our kids and mean the world. You definitely had a workout on that well. I'm curious about how much those two guides weigh. I notice you and your dad both putting your back into taking them in and out. Can only imagine doing it solo. Great job, as always.

Glad to know she's doin well. Thank you for taking the time to make the videos.

glad and happy your fur baby is doing well

I use only distilled in my coolant. No minerals to cake up or conduct current. Pure water is a resistor of elec. Of course add glycol for freezing or crack metals.

And for terminologies sake its a Run capacitor . Another great H2O video

Great pups!

I just found your videos and it’s really interesting to see how you do this stuff. Thanks for making the videos!

Glad to hear Mandy is getting better 🐕‍🦺❤️‍🩹👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Hey, thanks for taking us to your house.

The well we found on our back 40 was 675ft and 250 to the top of the water. It's gonna cost us 7k to hook it up here in Southern Arizona. Thanks for sharing, and as always, keep building.

Great video’s very talented thanks from Ontario Canada Rob

down the road they drilled 12 1000' wells for a geothermal heating and cooling system for an office building

Cheapest part of A/C you nailed it. Best wishes on that to.

Nice video production job today…

You should keep an extra start cap at home because they don't last long anymore

Here in Oklahoma, we have an old well, likely drilled about 1920 to 86'. It still makes as much water as can be pulled out. I'd guess 30 gpm or better. I can't imagine the costs of 600' for .75gpm..wow.

Brown wire on the cap. is almost universally fan (or indoor blower motor).

In one place I lived here in south Louisiana, most of the wells were artisan wells and not over 100ft. Water was pretty good with some iron but not excessive. Some people would have the driller go to the 1200ft aquifer for supposedly better water. I could never tell the difference in water quality and their filters were just as dirty at the same change intervals.

I have just started watching your awesome videos about two weeks a go,I do enjoy them.I would like to see more electrical wiring and would like to see a three wire pump wired to the pressure switch and the control box.My well is three wire and 240 volts, pump is a Aero motor 1 horse.The control box is a Franklin control box.I all so have a Simple Hand pump in the same well at 551/2 ft. for back up.Just very curious about the three wire set up.All so installing the circuit breakers need in a power panel.Keep up your awesome videos.

its a carrier dude. thats all you need to know!

Have you ever frilled a hole for geothermal? I don't know anything about that for the most part but I'd guess it's just a thick tube of water being pushed down far and then looping back to a house.

would love to know your thoughts on the water situation @GhostTownLiving has, The current main source of water on site is 700' down the mine shaft, Theres an old (dry) spring of some sort on the surface 2500 feet from town which is 500ft lower than town, and the original spring for the town is 3.6 miles north west at +700 ft in elevation from town. People are constantly in his comments saying "just drill a well" despite the fact that its a barren mountain range on the edge of death valley. The only accessible place i would think you would have a CHANCE of hitting water is about 1000 feet up the road from the old dry spring, and your already drilling down 200' to get to the same level as said spring. Also, you might be equal parts interested and horrified in the collection / pump system thats in the 700 level of the mine.

I have to put my thermostat on 69 to stay half ass cool. Can't sleep upstairs even with bathroom vent running once, overhead fan running , floor fan running if its over 80 degrees outside. Oh yea, AC unit inside and out is a year old. I think its the metal roof, i should replace it.

Thanks for the videos and the great editing. Glad to see the pups doing so well, you really take care of them and love them and it shows! The newer AC units are working harder with higher pressures than the older units. Maybe consider adding a hard start capacitor kit to it to help it start easier. It will also help the compressor last longer. Just a suggestion.

It didn’t draw out of the reservoir because it works off vacuum but there is a leak so no vacuum

Hello, I stumbled upon one of your videos yesterday. And have been binge watching ever since. My wife and I are currently looking for property for a family compound location and retirement. A lot of the properties that we are finding are going to require a well done. And a couple of them have existing wells already. I'm sure somewhere in the comments or videos your location has been provided. But I have not yet found it. I know I could do a Google search of your company name and narrow it down. Hopefully you're in my area of Northern Alabama because I really like to hire you for potential work on our new property. I love the fact that your father is passing on a trade in a business and the fact that you want to carry it on. Great content great information and great camera work! Keep doing what you're doing and God bless!

Amazing shot of the camera going up and down the pipe……. If I were a younger man I would come work for you and your dad, who else would like to do that? You have a great work ethic combined with hands on knowledge. For you soy boys out there, this is what a real man looks like……

Awesome video and it's great to see Mandy doing well. Our two pups also get Fresh-Pet. Question: Do you send the drill bit out for sharpening and how often?

Whoa! 600? Gotta be mtns.

Question: have you ever hit any gas, Oil or other petroleum deposits on the deeper water wells? (ie contamination from deposits below leaking up into underground water deposits? Or did you even find anything usual when drilling? Thanks & thanks for the interesting video content!

do you have any videos on filtration systems. I am a new well owner and need solid un bias information. I have really been enjoying your content. keep it up.

Yes on the dog diet, crap in the stores is killing them.

Been seeing reports all the new units are junk including many window units and need repaired by every second year over and over. Even worse now the birds can't make nests correctly. Didn't see that one coming! ; )

Everyone needs two caps on the shelf for backup.

Hope you see this. I just had to replace my well pump shallow water jet. The pressure switch is preset 30 to 50. I forget the formula for the pressure tank what the air pressure should be on it. I believe it is a 30 gallon pressure tank if you’d be able to tell me that be great.

Nice camera work, al love that shot from above...you need to get a dron 👌🏻

No fork lift 😅 good idea for drill rods

You got an OEM Chinese Crapacitor.

I got a question out here when you grow well do you ever come across anything like silver and gold. Minerals

HI H2O LOOK AFTER YOUR FUR BALLS THEY DON'T TAKE THE HEAT ALL THAT WELL SINCE YOU SPOILT THEM, CHEERS PETER,

The real mystery to me is how you keep your white t-shirt clean on a job like that. My wife doesn't buy me white shirts any more because they stay white for about two days. Great video!

Chicken and rice for poorly dogs, and cats green veg if they'll eat it.

Have you ever installed an in well pressure tank?

Hey I whatch your videos very cool do yous get epiroc to resharpen your bits

Im confused I thought there was like some type of precise equipment to determine where and how deep water is. How come some of these well issues seem like they are difficult to find a good spot?

Where did u get the pulleys for pulling well pump

No comment on this video but I have a question. When is a pump control box required? Haven’t seen this discussed in any of your videos. My well (50 yrs old) had one on it but it was removed. I don’t use the well often ( lawn watering only because water is muddy) but I left it powered for 2 days and now the 9 yr old pump is burned out. Could the absence of the control box be a factor? I don’t know the pump size or depth.

i would imagen that drilling that deep might bring with it the risc of hitting a pocket of pressured gas or something like that.

Seems like those drills just mate right up with no cross threading. Is there something about the shape of the threads that minimizes the possibility of cross threading?

Our water runs about 400' deep. Well companies charge about $35k to put in a well. It's a good, reliable business.

I believe bores shouldn't be installed straight on line to homes and they should have a tank and a separate house pump. better system setup in my opinion but will cost the homeowner more in the initial startup but less in the future

Hi buddy, I'm one of your subscribers from Fiji. I also do water well drilling. I just wanted to know, what size compressor do you have on your rig?

Pricing and having a new drilled well installed in Central Virginia to replace a 25’ bored well. How often do you dig and not find water? My biggest fear is putting the money out and not getting anything. 😬 I’m also told I’m in a gravel/sandy geological area from one company and their quote was 10k more, the other company just says I might need a screen and liner, any thoughts? Love the content!

Is there a legal or safe depth limit when drilling?

Can a drill bit be rebuild

How much do y’all charge per foot? Doesn’t seem like a good flow for 605 feet. Great video!

I noticed it looked like you put some small 30 inch section between the extra drill string you brought in what was that for?

If you have a well that only makes 3/4 a gallon a minute, is this a case where a storage tank of six or nine hundred gallons makes sense? Would that be cheaper than fracking?

could he add a water holding tank like 1k gallons so the well fills the tank and the tank supplies the house?

600' deep seems crazy but if it works it works. I got a question. If you have a well that is producing rotten egg water and clogging filters up like crazy what would you do? My customer has spend 20-25 grand on water filtration equipment and barely solves the problem. I think it was a 200-300' well at least and they have tried to go deeper with the well. I know it's impossible to get an exact answer but suggestions are valuable.

🐕🐶😎👍

I have a well nearly that deep it is 588 feet deep I need to know what kind of pump you could sell me for that my well? I thought I sent you an email inquiring about this a week or so ago. What kind of drop pipe should I use? 100 ft static level 5 gallons a minute.

what is the deepest you will punch?

Do you leave the drill steel in the hole over night at 400 foot ? If we did that have lost 400 foot it would of locked it up .

Since you know what capacitor you need you should definitely order a Made in USA spare. The Chinese junk only lasts 1-2 years and the Mexican ones are only a little better.

pump it out?

As you have that sonar detector to hand, why didn't you run a hose for five minutes or so and watch the refill rate and do that calculation as confirmation?

one gallon a minute isn't much.

Well, I reckon its better to have a bird fall on your head than a bird poopn on your head 😂 Will local drought conditions effect how much GPM you can get drilling?

If your heat pump is only two years old it should be under warranty. Most heat pumps have at least a 5 year warranty, our heat pump came with a 10 year warranty.

Regardless of price, a 600’ well producing a gallon a minute seems too low of an output to me.

here's my 2 cents... only buy US made capacitors, they are more reliable than the Chinesium crap.

👍✌

Yes Sir man the dry dog food literally slowly kills our pets! We learned this the hard way too, and now that's all we feed our animals is real foods that can be identified as food and not a nutrition barren kibble! There's many vitamins and minerals missing including the fatty acids, essential oils, which all living things require for life! The first thing we noticed was the hips & knees, elbows, and walking become an issue with dogs. Our dog had no previous joint issues and was ruled by the vet as A-typical Arthritis, yet she's not old enough yet technically to have this problem to the point she couldn't walk up steps anymore! No Lymes Disease and nothing else genetic to place the blame on? Outside of 1 thing! Diet? We started her on Fresh Pet food and within a week she was almost back to her old self and has been making a slow recovery since. Unfortunately there's some levels of damage that occurred that isn't fully reversible, but she's probably a Good 85% better than she was, just from her diet alone, and yes she's lost weight and her skin irritations have vanished as well as making her coat nice and shiny and soft again as well. Just tons of incredible benefits for your loved ones! They're living beings too and require the same kind of nutrition for the most part as us. We'd probably all die young eating nothing but grains or cereals for each and every meal too?! SMFH! But glad to hear about your pup making a good recovery after that snake bite ordeal! Scary stuff bro! Hate snakes man!
