Wells Drilled |
Water Wells
Water from artesian rock wells come from surface water
that has percolated deep down into fissures in the
bedrock, purifying itself as it travels through the
topsoil, boulders, sand, silt and glacial material. An
SWBG drilled well is sealed to protect your well from
surficial contaminants that could otherwise enter your
water system. These contaminants include such things as
waste from farm and domestic animals, leach fields, fuel
oil, surface water, chemicals and road salt.
Location of the Well
 Numerous
factors affect location and the cost of a water well.
These factors include geological conditions, topography,
location of driveways and other structures, plus local,
state and federal regulations. We have an enormous
amount of data plus the intuitive experience to help
locate your well on your property to maximize its
delivery of water to your home or business.
Basically, there are four important considerations for
sitting a water well.
• Where
there is ground water
• Away
from sources of contamination
• Convenient
to power and the building being supplied water
• Accessible
for drilling and pump installation
Correct water well design and casing installation is
important to protect against contamination risks. Old
and abandoned wells can pose particular risks and such
wells must always be decommissioned and sealed by a
professional. |
