DISCLAIMER‼️The other side of Borehole you don’t see or Told -Building in Ghana 🇬🇭

1.Borehole is subjected to runout depending on land type.
2.Electrical current can also be a cause for your borehole to lose pressure.
3.Mis-operation and handling of pump can also make the pump lose pressure.
4.Your land can be Salt free or vice versa,it has nothing to do with the borehole.
5.Always keep the company number incase of any future problems I’m not affiliated to the company.

Great video mr brother! I think what you're talking about is called hydraulic fracturing or hydro-fracking and it is the process where they dig deeper pass the surface rocks they encounter to go deeper to reach a better pool of water. Most boreholes dug can easily reach the water above the rocks and the water can be a large pool or a shallow one. The shallow ones can easily face the problem Elvis is describing. You can also face that problem if the pump is left on for an extended period of time without pumping water because the tank(s) are full and this can lead to the electrical connection blowing fuse
Also, I think the digging is in meters not feet, so 100 meters, the length of a football field but sometimes they can reach the water before they get that far. If they go farther than 100 meters without reaching the water, some companies charge extra for every extra pipe being used. If you can, I'll advise you get a Pedrollo pump which may add a few 1000s of cedis to the cost but worth with it because that pump is the best when it comes borehole

What a great education my brother wooww

[@nomaiYoung]

Thank you for the explanation. We learn something new everyday.

[@IbrahimOsmanBansi]

Pls so it means 150 meters can produce much water than 100 meters right

[@Bilegagn]

@@IbrahimOsmanBansi
It depends how many rocks are underneath the land in your area. Once you pass the rocks, they won’t be any need to keep digging since they would already be in the water

Good info

Very informative, thanks

you welcome 🙏🏽

Good job Elvis

My borehole consumed 13 of the blue pipes (casing) meaning my borehole went deep to how many feets or metres please.

[@kwameedmilson]

Hello
Thanks very much for your video, I learnt a lot.
So does the pricing include all the things they needed? Or u have to buy the pump and other things separately?

[@ElvisBenson]

everything is included in the price

[@johnfiifiarthur6901]

When i turn on my pump, it takes about 35 minutes to notice that the water is not coming all that much then i off it. After switching it off, there u will hear a sound from the pump making pooon poon poooon poon ...in 10 to 15 minutes then the sound stops. Then i turn it on again for 35 minutes..... So in almost one hour a 1,500 litres of polytank is full. Is it normal ..... I called those who drilled it n they told me unless we commercialize it by lowering the pump deep down a bit....

[@ElvisBenson]

the pump must be removed and serviced.

[@yaababy1572]

Can one use a generator as a source of electricity to pump, if one doesn't have electricity at the site?

[@ElvisBenson]

Yes please

[@TJ-jh2ni]

Absolutely! Especially in rural farming communities where there is no electricity supply, using a petrol generator is very Common and normal.

[@peterocholla]

Yes, you can use a generator

Hello Mr Elvis
my borehole was installed recently
the water coming out has started smelling
any solution

[@ElvisBenson]

was seaside gravel stone put in the hole? the gravel stone is put into the hole to purify the water and such case like your th-cam.com/video/3hL59Rz-2hg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=7fYsj6P1D5FVo5yE watch this video for better understanding at the end

[@ElvisBenson]

if that was than and you still encountering this issue then you need to find a water treatment and filtration company to handle it for you.

[@fred5743]

Why do some borehole water taste salty? What is the cause.

[@ElvisBenson]

the area in which your land is ….if there is a sea or river around, there is high possibility that your land will be salty

[@anthonykeller4793]

What’s the cost to drill a borehole

[@ElvisBenson]

¢18,000 comes with borehole pipes and pump

[@rosemaryasafo-yirenkyi2514]

What happens when the water turns brown. Can anything be done

[@ElvisBenson]

Let overflow

[@ElvisBenson]

Eventually the clean and clear one will come then you add chemicals

[@richardamoako0707]

@@ElvisBensonplease how do you add the chemical? Pls can u do a video on that. Because I want to disinfect my water.

if you facing similar issue try and look for a Hydrofracture company to handle it for u

Does hydro fracture provide permanent solution for dry borehole ?

Hi Mr Elvis, i trust you are doing great, i have my house at kasoa and i was told the sodium or salt level is too high. Neighbours complain bitterly about that. Is there somethong that can be done about it ? Can reverse osmosis solve the problem? If yes, can you please give me a rough estimate for that ? Thank you for the informative update. God bless you 🙏

[@ElvisBenson]

i’m sorry but i have less knowledge about that treatment.

[@JBHotor]

You need a water softner filter

[@JBHotor]

RO is quite expensive to manage for a household

[@bam0ah]

Please Mr Benson, what inch for the submersible ? Is it a 2 - 2,5 - 3 - 4 or more inches ?? Thank you.

[@user-wc5ht7yt3w]

You keep stating 100ft in the video but i believe you intend to say 100meters.

thank you
