I already have a well , but the top got knocked off, and the pump went to the botttom, the case is full of soil sand and rocks, could this method work for clearing and acessing the pump at the bottom?

[HowToDrillAWell]

@TheRoadsnake The principle would, yes. The drill obviously couldn't fit down the hole, but what you'd want to do is buy our air-powered water pump from our website HowToDrillAWell(dot)com, hook it up to a small compressor, and drop it down there; if the rocks aren't larger than 1", it should pick them up no problem and clean out all the sand and let you get the pump out. I've used it for getting drills unstuck many times.

so how long does it take to drill this baby?

[HowToDrillAWell]

@yahmana It all depends on your soil; I always tell my customers to be prepared to spend a week; it may take more, it may take less, but if you aren't prepared to give it a week then you shouldn't attempt it.

Shame our water is 400FT below us :/ Id love to use a well for watering my garden and yard.

[HowToDrillAWell]

@Twisted86 Your water level - especially water for watering gardens/yard - is almost certainly much shallower than that. I've never had a customer who didn't find water at less than 100'; the vast majority find it at 50' or less. Odds are you would too. This may not be the best water, although sometimes it is better than deeper water, but regardless for your purposes it would work fine.

@ovidiu299 We have 4" casing in there, which is what most residential wells use, including those by professional well drillers. I run my house, farm, irrigation all off of one of these wells; in fact, it's only a 2" well and I've never, ever run out of water and many days I've pumped 2000 gallons per day . Many customers all over the world do the same, so it's hardly "useless".

@alexDphillips The question shouldn't be "Can I drill with out Electricity," it should be how the fuck am I getting on to the internet with NO electricity?

very nice

@TheHania123 16 CFM @ 90 PSI is required, more is better up to about 25 CFM, beyond which it doesn't matter.

Home Town of Marshall which drilled past Water as a practice to make an extra killing, As they now own most of Emsdale and the srounding area like Lambs Lake were I went as a Kidd NOW BLOCKED OFF! I seen this my self working for them at Eagle Lake west of South River but the crew told Me they looked Rich, and their for looked to Drill hundreds of feet more. And to boot the government gave them a government grant to do all this.

No kidding they were a weekend cottage.
