Some of the best tasting water comes from underground and to get to it, some digging must be done. Unless this liquid is being pumped from an artesian well, it might help to know more about this. Then you can answer the question about “How do water well pumps work?” Let’s take a quick look.
Dig the well first. There used to be people known as Water Witches who could take a y-branched willow stick, walk around a field, and eventually find where to dig when the switch would point downward. Since those days of magical attraction, modern technology offers electronic equipment that can find the best place to start digging.
Install the casing down the shaft. Due to the nature of soil, digging a shaft down in the ground could result in the dirt collapsing and clogging up the access. When a well is being dug, or drilled, the workers insert a metal casing to prevent any collapse. It should extend all the way from the ground to the opening of the underground lake or water source.
When choosing what size tank to get, keep in mind that the more often the pump has to run, the sooner it will wear out and have to be replaced. The larger the holding tank, the less strain or use there will be on the pump. The size of the pump depends largely on how deep into the ground it is dug.
There are basically two types of pumps. One that remains above ground, called a jet pump creates a vacuum in the pipe. In this type of pump the suction action brings the liquid up and then into the holding tank. A submersible unit is mounted down at the bottom of the casing and pushes the liquid up the pipes and into the holding tank. Electricity is typically used to operate either of these pieces of equipment and should have a shut off switch and inline circuit protectors to keep from damaging either type of unit.
“How do water well pumps work?” Is a question best answered by knowing that the motor which drives the unit either creates a vacuum that draws the water up from the ground or uses a pushing action that forces the liquid up from the ground and into a tank for future use. They are a very simple device used to bring that clear, fresh, sweet tasting liquid to the surface for the maintenance of life.
