Professional water well drilling in Ufa 

The water in the well was gone. What to do and how to be?

It often happens that over time, the well in the country stops producing water. What is the reason? What to do if there is no water in the well? In this article, we will help you determine the cause and give advice on how to eliminate it.

​

Causes and remedies:

​

1. The most common reason is that the well has served its time and dried up.

How to eliminate: - if there is water in neighboring areas at this depth:

a) to measure the depth with a string with a load for siltation of the well and subsequent flushing.

b) the measurement showed full compliance with the original depth of the well - the well is subject to re-drilling.

​

2. Long break in the use of the well

How to fix: First, check the operation of the pump, it is better by replacing it with a proven one (often the pump pumps water on the surface, but cannot lift it from a depth). If the water still does not go, then you need to pump the well.

​

3. Depletion of the horizon

How to fix: Wait for a warm and snowy winter, or drill a well into a deeper aquifer.

​

4. Several actively used wells in a small area-limited area

How to eliminate: a) switch to less powerful pumps (with reduced water supply); b) install a storage tank that is filled with water, say, at night (regime well); c) balanced water withdrawal, i.e. Only the most distant wells can work at the same time. d) drilling a well to a great depth;

​

5. If you drilled a well for sand, you should take into account that the service life of such a well is 5-10 years

How to fix: Drill a new well into the limestone (artesian well).

​

6. Silting of the bottom of the well

How to fix: Cleaning or flushing the well, pumping water under high pressure.

​

7. Breakage of the pump, ingress of debris, etc.

How to fix: Do not save on pipes, fasteners and cables. If the pump breaks and falls to the bottom, the probability of its extraction is very small.
