Same here. New to wells. Water went out yesterday. Without your videos id have been screwed. I got 5 kids n a disabled wife so money is really tight. I aint got 1 or 2k laying around. Thank you for taking the time and effort to make these videos for us brother. I pulled 330' of well line up. Fixed a rub break. Put it all bk together and its working perfectly. 💪
I had a construction company for thirty five years and I did well service as well, I would of loved to have you working for my company. I could have made lots of money with your knowledge, you are very informative and do wonderful work. Your father did a great job training you. I also want to thank you for your great videos.
Have you ever seen a bad pump that will pump water to the pressure tank but won’t allow the pressure tank to pressurize and push water to the house? We had water that would come out of the line before the pressure tank and the pressure switch stayed on constantly. Company that installed the well 30 years ago came out and put in a new pump because supposedly the pump was cracked. After install we had water for a hour then back to no water. They came back out and said the filter was clogged. I questioned the filter from the beginning but was told no. So after $2400 for a new pump then they said the filter was clogged. I feel like I got taken for a ride here. All because I didn’t know shit about a well. You are teaching me a lot for the future and I appreciate this so much.
Maybe the best DIY video I've ever seen.
I heard my pump short cycling for quite a while. It was the pressure tank. I replaced the tank and that eliminated the short cycling. I already bought a new pump, wire, and all the accessories because I figured she could quit any time. That was two years ago. That darn pump is still working fine. It was pulling sediment which had me cleaning my washing machine hose screens and the screw in screens on my fixtures so I put in a large sediment filter. No problems now, but I'm ready when she gives up the ghost.
You have major talent in teaching. Like major. I wouldn't be surprised if a big well/water company sees your videos and hires you for big money. What your dad taught you is priceless and it's fucking amazing to watch in action.
Thanks for a fantastic "How To" video. My pump is running constantly and is only running up about 25 LBS. of pressure. No leaks in the system. I now know how to replace the pump. The pump is over 18 years old.
That tape is called Scotch 130C - it's made for generator or motor connection - when you wind it onto itself it seals and sticks - there is one other thing you can do to help ur connection - at your electrical supply house ask for some hear shrink with the self sealing compound in it - as you heat up the heat shrink and it gets hot the internal sealant will melt and seal the connection - you will actually see it ooze out the end - start in the middle of the heat shrink and shrink it to the end - utility companies and anybody that does much underground terminations swear by it.. they sell it in 3 foot lengths - good luck - another thing you should do is when you get the wire out - cut them and tie the two hots together - then take your meter put it on ohms in the wire - if there is no ohms the wire is broken - all wire has a spec on how many ohms it should have per thousand feet -so with a accurate ohm meter you can determine if there is a short between the wires. There are some really spendy tools that send an electronic pulse down the wire and the short will reflect back a signal to the tool - the fancy tool will measure the time it takes from the pulse to the reflected pulse and then tell you how many feet away the short is. I have used these in the past to locate shorts in underground cables ... nice videos - I'd be interested in seeing how you pull an old well that has PVC or hard pipe in it...
Excellent work and video! I’m thankful that there are still highly skilled professionals such as yourself who take pride in their work. It’s hard here in rural Alabama to find technicians who will still work on residential water wells.
Definitely a southern installation. Up here in Canada we use a pitiless adapter to keep all water below ground and the frost level.
You're one of the best explainers about these systems I've ever seen. I've talked to a lot of guys about my well, pump, pressure tank, etc., and no one has explained the setup and how it works as succinctly as you have. Nice job.
Thank you for providing these videos. You clearly take pride in what you do, and thats exactly how any tradesman should be.
A true professional in his line of work can be seen in this video. This is the definition of a "skilled trade" or "skilled labor". After seeing you perform this task, I wouldn't hesitate to pay any amount of money you ask for doing this as it is easy to tell you have the experience, knowledge and workmanship that it required to get it done properly/precisely. Thank you!
I retired from well repair due to health about a year ago. Over the years it has been one of the most annoying things to find the well embedded in overgrown brush or trees. A few memorable ones:
Best presentation on a DIY video that I've seen on the TH-cam wasteland. No wasting of words, great video shots of what he is describing, gets to the point in a clear and concise way and leaves me feeling like I learned something worth remembering. Great job, man. Subbed on the spot.
To all the folks here in the comments to see if this guy is legit or not I would like to say you found the right guy.
Nice job. Up here in Pa we use pitless adapter where the ground freezes. And I'm with you 2 wire pumps. One thing we do is tie a nilon rope to the pump and run it too the top of the hole in case the clamps would ever slip. And there are star like things u can put on the pipe that keeps it from rubbing on the wire when pump kicks in..after drilling wells for 30 years and putting in pumps . I like your pump pull set up. We had a pump puller. Just hooked it to the 240 wires kick on the braker . still a drrty job. At one time we where running 2 drills every day.most wells where less then 200 feet. 5 and 5/8 hole. Then we went to a 6 and a 1/8 hole bottom hole that is. Thanks for sharing.
What a great way to pull a pump! Best technique I've ever seen. This video is worth 5 stars just because of that.
An update, I finally built the courage to yank the submersible up after watching your videos and coordinating with a handy pal. I had to go to the hardware store to buy a 1" threaded pipe, to pull up the pitless. Once we had the pump on the ground it was obvious, the connection at the end of the pump was corroded with a 1 inch hole. Had to pick thread out in pieces. A new fitting and down she went. Brown water ended up plugging various fawcett filters and did a number on the washing machine, but we're back in act action. Around here that would have been a $5000 with a new pump.
EXCELLENT VIDEO! I have a 90' deep well pump and it runs but doesn't pump water, I think my pipe broke. I've been trying to get my son to help me pull it for 2 years, and now I see your pump pulling wheel tool, I will build one and pull the pump myself this summer. I run my water from a spring tank so I'm not without water but the well water has iron in it and is used as a backup or in the summer to water the grass. Thanks!👍
