Drilling for Water Off-Grid - The final answers to our well story
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 19 окт 2024
- The well company has officially arrived, and they brought their big rig this time. It is down to business doing our best to drill for water. Attempt after attempt, as long as they do not give up on us we will not give up on them.
Our well story comes with plenty of bad news, but determination to keep pushing may just bring us what we are looking for. It has been a stressful last year full of unknowns in regards to if we can get water on our property or not and finally having a concrete answer can put those concerns to rest.

You made me cry....happy tears. I'm soooo happy for you. Onward and upward.❤❤❤
Do yourself a favor. When you pipe to house set a bladder pressure tank, a back flow preventer and a shut off valve. That way you will maintain pressure inside your house with that long of a run and depth of pump.
This is just fantastic! I’m beyond thrilled for you! Thank you for sharing your joy!
I'm so glad for you. It will make life a lot easier. You must make a wellhouse and insulation . So you keep it from freezing. Wow, I was so. 😊 excited.
I am so happy for you both! Another step done!
So delighted for you all life will much easier for you now you work so hard love your videos best regards from the South East Coast of Ireland 🇮🇪
You will have to find yourself a Desiel Gen and build a wellhouse now and all will be great! Glad you all got some water.

We drilled for water at our cabin. It was 110 ft. Ian is so very happy for you both, water is so important in an area such as yours ❤
Sometimes u forget how easy it is to be on grid for something as simple as clean drinkable water, to then see the cost and difficulty of having to drill hundreds of feet to get water. My heart goes out to those who have to suffer no water source. Water means life.
I am so happy for you guys you got water ,i am just saying so many times i am so happy for you ❤❤❤😊😊😊 Brenda from canada
Congratulations so happy for your family
I am so happy for you! We had a well drilled 14 years ago and it is wonderful not to have to worry about running out of water.. Congratulations!
Congrats!!! So exciting. Hapy for yall
Im so over the moon that you have water, i shouted out loud when i saw it, fantastic news xx
Sooooooooo happy for you guys. That’s got to feel so good to finally get it done. It’s an early Christmas present.
So glad for you
Focus on what you can do not what you can’t do… joy will follow, excitement will follow… be grateful in all blessings.
Wow that is a really deep well. Congrats. Your excitement is priceless.
Yay ! What a huge milestone for you guys !! I noticed you're Lake Owen Gymnastic Camp hoodie , that's about 4 mi. from my home ... small world
I am so happy for you it seemed like last year it was such a struggle now finally resolved. I can hear the excitement in your voice congratulations !!
When we had our well drilled in Alaska (after hauling for 4 years)we got THE best water we had ever tasted! Congrats!!!!
Thankyou 😊
I was overjoyed to see another video from y'all. Now, I am thrilled to see the reason. WATER! Congratulations!
Congratulations. I know this is a relief for you. I can’t imagine what it would be like to have to haul in water to wash clothes, dishes and my body with. ❤
I am so happy for you and many blessings to you and your family. Thank you for sharing blessing's to the well drilling crew. I hope they can get their truck up and running. Thank you, Jesus, for all your blessings over us now. A new bathroom is coming soon 🙏
This is just the biggest blessing!!!
I see a stove that looks just like the one my grandmother used to have sitting out in the yard 😊😊😊
Thats great that you have water now. You where going so deep i thought you might hit black gold. But water is very good.
YAY🥳 I'm sooo happy for you☺ I was cheering and clapping out loud here, LOL🥰
Sweetie, you’re excitement and happiness are contagious. Good to see big smiles on your faces. Congrats!! Never take things for granted, right? Happy hugs for you. 😊😊😊
Alaska doesn’t require drilling companies to decommission abandon water well attempts. Those three other wells are potential aquifer contamination holes. Be careful. FYI, we own a water well drilling company in Idaho and understand all that was going on with your project. We’re glad they finally got to the water for you!
WOW,
📣📣THATS VERY IMPORTANT INFO TO KNOW !!!!! 📣📣
Those posts might make a great place for clothes lined or swings
We are undecided so far on what to do with them.
💡I was thinking the same thing in ref. to a clothes line😊
So excited for you hope you get it!!! Watching with fingers crossed
YAAAAA! WATER! Very excited for you! Will make EVERYTHING so much easier for your family!
Congrats on the well. Solar panel posts, clothes lines, uprights for a garage etc.
👍👍👍
Love the 2 videos per week. Plz keep ‘‘em coming!
Aw fingers crossed for your lovely little family that you are successful in getting water. xx♥
This is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!! My well went out...Well people couldn't fix it, electrictions couldn't fix it, I eventually replaced everything and finally got my well back..Here in NE Ohio, mine is only 75' deep. I drilled out a hole in the thick wall of the well pipe, 4' down and installed a pitlass adaptor so my water line runs from that 4' level through a 4' trench into my basement. I am surprised that they didn't install a pitless adaptor to be used in the future when you do run your water into the house.
So happy for you. Judy C
I'm so happy for you guys !!

Build a small well house around the well pipe outlet to protect it from the winter weather. Would also serve as a generator storage. Utilize the (1) or both steel pipes for mounting your solar panel bank.
👍👍
Congratulations on hitting water. 👍. Life is good.
Congratulations! That's so exciting
Yay water!
What a blessing to have a well. Exciting news 🎉🤗❤️🙏🏻❤️🤗🎉

Yay I'm so happy for you, This will make life so much easier. Congrats
Great video. I’m so happy for you! It was nerve wrecking just watching you I can’t imagine living through that!
When was this filmed Lori? Didn't you put metal on your woodshed, or am I losing it lol. So happy for you! I love your excitement!
We had a few videos going on at the same time. When the well guys first came out there was no roof, after they left they came back two days later and in that time we got the roof up on the shed.
I'm so happy for you, water is life :)
So happy for you.
Congratulations 🎉. Such a blessing 🙏
Sooooooo happy for you guys.. Wow!.. all the water around you guys.. I thought you would hit at 50 -ish.
Very happy for you guys!
Congratulations!
Congrats 🎊! I hope you get a bathroom soon and a laundry room .. ❤😊
That’s awesome!
I used to drill oil wells~ dry holes are my game HA!!!
Do you have to winterize it before it gets colder to protect it? Such great news for y'all!❤
We drilled a hole 20ft down the pipe so it will drain to there and not freeze.
Good that you were able to use that special: buy 3 holes and get the 4th one for free. Any decent generator that can produce 240 v should solve the power issue, or even a solar hybrid generator/inverter with 240 output. Also, you can get a 120 volt pump so you can use your existing solar set up. That's how I handle my 2 wells.
We were told because of the depth of the well we needed to go with the 240v pump.

CONGRATULATIONS
I'M SOOOOOO HAPPY😍
FOR YOU ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is without a doubt A HUGE quality of life change aswell as a tremendous Capital Improvement to your homestead. This such a weight off you alls shoulders.
Are you going to have to build a little insulated well or pump house ASAP? Before the temperature 🌡plummets, to keep it from freezing 🥶 ?
Thanks for Sharing
🙏💞🙏💞🙏💞
So awesome, congratulations.😂
I'm so happy for you guys!!! I was so nervous watching. We went through something similar with our well, and it is definitely nerve racking. What is your static water level?
252’
Those pipes would make good platforms for solar
Yeah Water!
❤❤❤❤❤
C9ngrats ❤❤❤
Can you talk about cost?
Can you disclose the cost/ft and cost breakdown? Also, do they charge you for failed holes?
