Addition of rainwater in a well




by kata » 11/11/06, 20:24

Hello,

After cleaning my well, a little water arrived. I stopped digging. I made join the pluvial in the well and I closed it with an iron plate. The water no longer stays in the well.

THINGS TO DO
Is it an evaporation phenomenon because of the plaque?

Thank you for your advice.

It all depends on the construction of your well, in concrete rings, in brick or rubble masonry, ... etc.
If it goes to the bottom, you can try to put clay in the bottom or concrete. But as for a possible evaporation, forget that, it is impossible, even in the Sahel (or so little).

Bonjour.
A well is normally dug up to the water table
and even slightly lower to have a reserve, the water table normally finished on a waterproof layer, which sometimes is thin, it should not be smashed with a well (surface) or continue to dig more hollow.
Normally above this waterproof layer the ground is sandy or gravel, or clayey, but it lets the water run, it is by there that the well feeds, the waterproof layer was made with the years like the lie of the rivierres it is all this fine silt which is deposited and which makes it waterproof.
When you cure a well, it is this silt that has accumulated at the bottom, more particularly on the sides of the bottom, because in the long run it clogs up the sand or gravel (the veins that feed the well) normally if the well was (functional) that is to say that it fills up fairly quickly after emptying it, it will regain its balance, just line the bottom with fine sand and make it work to call water, fine particles of water will clog the bottom and water will come on the sides. over time this will get in order.

rainwater in the well, allowed?




by wolf84 » 24/11/06, 12:26

Hello
I take this post to ask you if it is authorized to run the well water from my gutters in a well? Currently, these rain waters are running on my property ... not very practical. However I have a functional well in the cellar, in which all these waters could leave !!!
Thank you in advance for the answers

I do not know if it is allowed, it depends on the regulations
municipal, regional, provincial etc ...
But what is certain is that you will contaminate the tablecloth
You will probably not use your water, knowing
that it is contaminated. Your neighbors do not know it and
probably use this water. They are the ones who will benefit from it.
You might as well avoid pouring rainwater from a well.

Contamination can be caused by metallic elements
of your gutters and other roofing materials
(Asbestos, tar, lead, copper, zinc, etc.), by corpses
of animals, by the degections of birds, by mosses
and dust of undetermined origin as well as by the polens which
can be very contaminating in certain years.

This year my rainwater tank was contaminated by
softwood polens. I had to empty it and clean it with a cleaner
high pressure .

Hello
In chalky regions, buildings sometimes discharge their rainwater into so-called waste pits, so this is probably allowed, perhaps it should be declared :?:

put what Rabbit says is also true (various contaminations : Evil: )

gully water from roads and highways, where it lives in chalky regions, treated in sewage treatment plants or directly above retention basins

to evacuate surface water, it is necessary to make it leave in a lost well, it is advisable a well made of stones and sand so that the water is "filtered" by the ground before returning to the water table, if you reject it in a then directly you will contaminate the tablecloth
