Water Well Problem

[logwalker]

My well didn't hit until 787' feet. Do I win something? We are surrounded by saltwater and we went 500' below sea level. go figure. Joe

That saved you some money at only 108'.And 100 gallons a minute,start selling water.That is great and than some.No more water problems for you.That will keep the pool full or is that the log pond?

[Jeff]

Furby thinks its the log rolling pond. :D

Get this.........
Da dog can play in da pool....... da Furby can't. :-\

This reminds me of a story I read somewhere(maybe on the Forum) about a group of women discussing which kitchen convienience they would miss the most if it was removed.
One said the fridge one said the dishwasher, another the stove but when asked,  the grandmother said she would miss the running water the most. It's amazing what we take for granted until something happens to it. Imagine the woods toys we would have if we didn't have to spend so much money on the house and vehicles!! 

[Jeff]

Its not the Furby, its da logs.  NO ONE LIKES LOGS IN DA POOL!  :D


treetech, Yep, if it were not for the well, I could have bought me a new ATV. :-\

Yes.  I remember that edict coming out in a post a long time ago.  I think it was about the first piggy roast.  The boss said 'No Furby's in da pool!' 

:D :D :D

[Furby]

Yeah Boss, don't make me pull those posts up!
The rule was NO FURBIES IN DA POOL!
Nothing to do with logs at dat time, something bout furballs though.

To get the facts straight, I'm the one that asked about the Log Rolling  :

Your success with 100 gpm reminds me of a furnace customer I had several years ago. It seems he was getting an in ground pool installed and as the workers left for lunch he asked them if it was ok for him to fill the pool yet. They said he could but that it was going to take a long time to fill it because the pool held over 30,000 gal and they chuckled as they left. They went to town, had lunch and picked up something they were missing for the job. When they returned the pool was over 3/4 full and filling fast. It seems the guy had a well that was only 20 feet deep and he was on an underground river. He had an irrigation pump with something over 300 gpm hooked up and filling the pool. He claimed the water was good, soft and tested real good. The pool guys were impressed to say the least.

As I suspected and correctly recalled, the no Furbys in da pool rule is a direct result of wanting to ROLL LOGS IN DA POOL!

Pregunta,  Gonna be any logs in that pool  Roll Eyes Grin  Uhhhhhhhh, knowin Kevin, I probably shouldn't have axed that. Roll Eyes

[Jeff]

Well, (Ha, Well!)  Well, our water quit completely tonight. Cant get it going again. The new well is in but not hooked into the house yet. Tammy came in to call the well guy and he answered the phone and laughed and said did you check your email?  So we checked our email and there was a note from him saying they would be here in the morning to tie the new well in.  I guess we can get along until morning. Thank goodness the thing held out this long. 

[Kevin_H.]

All's well that ends well.

Man thats deep.

[Gary_C]

Well, you must be thinking there is something funny going on in your house. First you dream about how to fix the picture thingy and it works, then your old well turns off when an email arrives and you don't even see the email. How did you do it?   ???

[Jeff]

We got water!  Here Jeremy is testing the line and shutoff valve he requested be put in so he can put a sprinkler system in for his Mom.  Looks like plenty of pressure there eh?  :D

[beenthere]

Looks like a good stream ta me. 

Dat da mill shed back der in white? 

Ya all packed?

[Doeslyr]

Either u have a crack in one of the lines, trash in foot valve holding it open or a loose clamp.

[Jeff]

Or... I put a new well in. 13 years ago by the  looks of the topic date.

@Jeff I got a chuckle this morning when one of the topics dug up in "suggested topics" was one on "IP ban testing". [That might be how this thread got pulled to the top.] Anyhow, the point of it relates/pertains to the recent topic on DNA testing. The old 2001 "IP ban testing" topic came up. I was thinking, for about 10 seconds, that you need a button where you can get a rap sheet from all the bad actors over the years based on IP address that is linked to DNA test. :D :D

Don't be surprised if all these DNA tests don't morph into something in 10 years, that you then wish you hadn't done one. :D

It's early, and sometimes the little things get a chuckle out of me. ;)
