First Water. Connecting our Well to Our DIY House.

- One of the most essential parts of a modern house is running water. It has been a huge effort to get this far. A professional could probably have done all this in a day. But that doesn't matter. We have water now.
Break Heart Orchard is a small farm that we are carving out of previously forested land.
We will be putting out videos on a weekly basis to document this journey as we build our own home and create our dream farm and Orchard Cidery. Check out our other videos and subscribe, to follow along on this adventure

The two of you work so well together.
Thank you. I think this whole house build has been very good for us.
Well Done. Just clip the extra switch wire and nut it off, it'll be fine. I like to use tape over the wire nuts.
I have become a fan of the Mastic tape. It is a bit more expensive but it really sticks.
There be water here!!! Congratulations!!!!!
Thanks. We are really happy.

QUE HEMOSIO VER SALIR EL AGUA, QUE FELICIDAD
yaaaoooooooooo isn't that the greatest feeling ever when you finally see this earth and the water that will give back life to everything.!!!!!!!!!! So excited for you and I was thinking you were going to open all the lines and once and blow all the air out of the lines at once! So happy for you guys, it is getting there and boy you are closer and closer and you have got it going on........things are narrowing down for you and the weather will get nice and you will be spinning staying busy. Congrats on the water and all the rest is on the way to being the next few big steps. Proud of you and your tenacity and having one of the best helpers ever. You two are quite the team! God bless and keep you safe as you start into the rest of your dream coming to reality .......soon!!!!!!!
:-) :-)
Thank You. It is such an absolutely essential element to a home. I feel silly for being so excited but I know that is only because we are so very fortunate to live in a modern time when running water is common place and we are able to take it for granted. So many aspects of this build have been educational in this respect. showing us how much we never noticed about our very fortunate and complicated lives.
Congratulations 🎊 on WATER!
Thank you.
Good feeling. just saying
Great feeling.
I do not know anything about electric but that's a pretty neat job 👌
The electrician started it so I am just following his lead on the organization of the wires. Trying to keep it all tidy. I am sure it will get confusing quickly.
AHORA SI VEO CLARITO QUE LLEGO EL AGUA, QUE LA OTRA VEZ CONFUNDÍ UN CABLE CON CHORRO DE AGUA🤓🤓🧐🧐🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️😅🤣😂QUE BUENO QUE LLEGO NUEVO CARTA VIDEO ME ENTRETENDRE EN ALGO HERMOSO
Congratulations, I remember how good it felt when we got our well going. 😉😉
What a simple thing. But such a big big deal. Hard to imagine what life was like 200 years ago. We have a stream. We have a few springs on the property. The pond is man made. When you think about how hard it would have been to deal with water needs before electricity and combustion engines it really is amazing.
You might need a switch at the well to turn off the pump. Safety, so you do not have to run back to the house. Great work.
I had that issue with ours 😆
Congratulations!!! It was nice seeing a smile on your face.
Thanks. Little achievements are adding up to big things
Sweet
well done both of you. Bet that was a relief when water came through. Good luck with your next stage
There was a nagging concern that Inhad made a mistake with the wiring. One wire in particular, gave me some trouble.
And that was the first break that I have ever wired. So when I flipped that switch and the manifold shook, I was pleased.
Congrats on successfully installation of the well 👍👍👍💪💪🇯🇲🇯🇲
Thanks loyd. I am sure that as the years go by it will fade from our memory and we will take if for granted most days but there will be little reminders of how much was involved.
@@breakheartorchard4761 so right
You have water. Not only that but you have great pressure. Congratulations. What a great feeling for something we all take for granted way too much. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe
It is amazing to be able to open the hydrant and have fresh clean water.
Pleasant weekend greetings from Jamaica 🇯🇲 Break Heart family. Wow what a blessing to have a video to relax on the weekend.
Fantastic!! Another big milestone!! Congrats!
Thanks.

VER LOS ARBOLITO CON FLORES QUE HERMOSO
Wow another great video from you all and I know that you both are very happy about the water
Absolutely astounded. I didn’t anticipate just how big a deal it would be. How comforting it would be to get it off the list.
Congratulations. 🎉🎊🍾🎈 y’all must be beyond excited
It has been a long time coming.
So cool. That's got to feel great. Good job you guys.
Thank you.
Congratulations well done ! Excùse the pun! Lol I'm pro u d of you be a I e you both have have worked so hard and learnt allot oblong the way. It's been an honour to follow you both along this journey. God bless from the land down under. Xxx
Thanks Banjo. We ate thrilled and enthused. Success is the best motivation.
Makin' progress and lookin' good!!
Tolle Arbeit 👏👌👍😁😊😉🇩🇪😇
😏😏.... Water! Water! Water!!!
And we can actually drink it.
I applaud your use of music and choices made.... with one recommendation; when pushing wire up a conduit, Indian Music used for snake charming would be excellent. lol Keep up the good work folks, cause every little bit is informative and entertaining.
Thanks. We try to have fun with it.
That’s a it’s for me. The pressure tank actually looks like an expansion tank I didn’t know they made them that small. Nor have I ever seen anyone install the tank and pressure switch inside the house.. Don’t know how much experience you have with wells but I believe 60 psi is pretty high most pressure switches are designed to shut the pump off At about 30 to 40 psi... I’m not saying there is anything wrong because I don’t know for sure but it might be worth your time to check out what I said. Oh and the pressure switch is adjustable or it should be
That is a great question, and I actually made a detailed explanation for a previous video but I edited it out because I didn't feel my explanation was accurate and clear. I have a constant pressure system using a Cyclestop valve. That eliminates the conventional pressure tank and uses the cyclestop valve to control and limit the water pressure. The pressure switch is tuned for 50-70 psi and the cyclestop valve is set for 60 psi constant operating pressure. I worked with the folks at Cyclestop to design this system specifically for my pump size, well depth, hose size and length, drop from well head to house, and projected usuage. I also worked with the pump vendor to make sure I had a properly sized and powered pump for my well depth, refresh rate, and desired output. there is always a downside, and mine is that there is no reserve water available in a power outage.
I was thinking the same question about having the tank inside. Good answer and well planned. And you do see large hot water heater tanks inside - usually in the garage or attic. Could you add a large tank for storage? Would you have to drain and air pressurize them together?
Congratulations another milestone. Stay safe.
Huge.
Lol gorilla tight . Needed a bigger gorilla lol , you're doing great David if you haven't already backfilled the trench yet just be careful with big rocks getting on the pipe. Hope you use caution tape close to the surface within a foot or 2of the surface
You guys are awesome thanks for sharing
Thank you.
Nice!!! I recommend getting a spin down filter, gets a lot of the bigger stuff and you can just rinse the filter by spinning it. It will make the other filters last a lot longer.
Thank you, I will research that one.
When your deep in the trenches it is best to buy boots that have grip when climbing out of the trench. You both seem to do well going in and out of the trench.
This is some accomplishment - the basic services are on line, so you have an incredible potential. Keep on, from now on everything will be a lot easier and more fulfilling. =) Cheers.
Thanks. We know there is a lot more to do but we feel closer and closer all the time.
Well done guys looking great so far.x
Thanks. Jefanna has been loving the water to get the grass growing.
Great milestone, I'm happy for you two!
Thank you.
CHECK THAT OFF THE LIST!!
Yes!!!
YAY!
VER EL AGUA SALIR POR LA BOMBA TIENEN QUE AFIRMARLA A UN PILAR DE CEMENTO DE EXELENTE CALIDAD PARA QUE DURE
Waterline are sooo stressful to install! So much work to dig them out if they fail 😣
Oh yeah. Thats why I went so deep. To minimize the risk once it was done.
👌🏻👍
NO CERIA MALO HACERLE UNA BASE CON ESCUADRA O UNA BASE COMO MEZA CON PATAS LARGAS A ESE CILINDRO DONDE VA EL AGUA A LA CASA PORQUE LA PRESIÓN LO VA HACERSE MOVER CADA VEZ QUE SE OCUPE AGU Y LA GRAVEDAD TIRA
So no freezing temperatures where you are then? We have to put out lines 9 ft down
9 feet? Holy smokes. Where are you? Our frost line is only 18 inches. But Input these so deep to protect from vehicle traffic
@@breakheartorchard4761 iCanada and it is more the further north you get, everyone does 9 ft., most of Montana, North Dakota etc is the same.
ESO PARECIÓ UN REGISTRO POLICIAL 😅🤣😂🤣😅🤣😂
get your water tested to see what kinda filters ya'll gonna need.
I dropped a gallon of water off at the lab two days ago.
ME ASUSTE AL FINAL ¿QUE PASO?
No on the music for me. Sorry
stupid music ruins blog
