Excellent video! I have an intermittent short and have checked everything above ground. Time to pull the pump. 😢

Jus preparing for the future Thanks brother

Everytime you pull your pump and lay it on the ground . You need to chlorinated you well water. Because you can pick up bacteria from the ground and it will get in your potable water. And you can look up the ratio. For different depths of standing water. There are videos showing you how to check that. We also use shrink kits around the wire connections to double seal the wires. We also install a foot valve to the pump then you adaptor from that to you well supply line. That will keep you line from the pump to your tank primed with water. It so your pump does not have to work as hard getting water to your tank. Once you chlorinated the well you pump it to your holding tank and let it stay in it for 24 hours. To kill the bacteria. Go to each fixture and turn it on just until you start to smell the chlorine. Then turn it off. Do that to each faucet and tub and shower. Let it all sit for 24 hours. Once the time is up hook a hose to your drain on the tank and run the other end of the hose in a bucket. Run water until you do not smell the chlorine. It will smell like a pool at first. When it doesn't then you have cleared it out . Then you can run the water from your faucets until there Is no more smell. If not you can make you and your family really sick.

What a great video. Unfortunately my pump is 770 feet down and they used 20 foot sections of pvc pipe screwed together. When my pump craps out I’ve gotta hire a company to drive a truck into my back yard to pull 20 feet of pvc at a time. Too heavy for manual removal. . It’s $$$ in labor. Best thing I ever did though is have them install a variable speed pump that delivers constant pressure. No more 40/60. Great video and very well done. Nothing you can’t do!

Thanks for this video. My pump is broken and I will replace it now!

Thank you for the video, Akex. This is my next project!

Fabulous video and tutorial!

Excellent. Thank you.

My water was barely working. The owner before me shut off the water softener/ iron removal so he could have water. I didn't live there until 6 months later. When I turned on the power breakers sparks happened. Turned out the pump was only getting half power. After getting full power to pump I could run the water softener/ iron remover ! Then every year There were more problems because the system was old. Pump, Tank, pressure regulator, leaks, faucets. Shallow well. About 8 years of repairs.

is using electrical tape wise? If it gets wet and starts to break off, won't it clog the pump impeller?

I wonder if you could help me find answers to the following: Thinking to lower the pressure tank and connect to the pump about 10' - 15' under the ground to eliminate the heating well house in the winter season. My pipe runs about 6' under the ground. 1) is it a good idea? 2) how to do it? 3) Should I install another pressure tank under the house in the crawl space? The well is about 30 yards away from the house.

Great Video. Thank you for sharing. May I ask, around your live area, you don't use City water ? my area we use city water. I never see submersible well pump before.

Do i need to prime the new pump or just drop it in and go? Thanks

👋👋 Hello, where are you located, I need your services asap I need help fixing my well. I have to turn the breaker on and off everytime we need to use water because the pump won't shut off on its own I've already replaced the switch and the control box like five times because it keeps burning out the capacitor.

Your filter shoukd be changed every six months to a year. His filters need to be changed. There is one filter that shoukd be the first one. We call it a turn down filter. It is one that will catch the bigger partials and you can take it out and rinse it. In the laundry tub or kitchen spray. Or outside hose . It is your first line defense and will make your other whole house filter last longer.
