Water supply system for a summer residence
Private country cottages and dachas are located far from centralized water supply networks. Therefore, it is necessary to organize an autonomous system for providing water This system is one of the main life support systems for a private house Water is needed for cooking, washing, cleaning and hygiene needs
The water supply system includes a water source, pumps, filters and external and internal piping systems. The basic schemes of an autonomous water supply system are similar in technical design. These systems differ only in water sources
In the village, a common source of water is a well. A pump is installed in the well and it pumps water through a pipeline to the house and other household facilities
th buildings If there is no ready-made well on the site, then it needs to be dug up. Before digging a well, you need to find out at what depth the aquifer is in this area. After the construction of the well, it is necessary to analyze the water in a specialized laboratory
For some time now, the most common and reliable source of water has been a well. Experts drill a well using a mobile drilling unit
Drilling As drilling progresses, casing pipes are installed. These pipes protect water from pollution. A caisson is installed on the top of the well, it protects the well from freezing, debris and dust
Water wells are divided into two types – sand and artesian wells Sand wells are drilled to a depth of 15 – 40 meters Due to their shallow depth, they have a relatively low cost and are very common. A sandy well can provide water to a medium-sized country house that does not require large water consumption. A small-sized pump is installed in such a well. It is recommended to install a storage tank for water next to the well. served in a residential building and other buildings
Artesian wells are considered the best sources of water. These wells have a depth of 50 to 160 meters. At such depths, water is located between two dense soil layers that protect it from pollution. Therefore, water from such deep wells is considered the cleanest. The main disadvantage of deep artesian wells is their high cost Often, these wells are drilled and pooled for several cottages or a whole summer cottage. A borehole pump is installed in an artesian well, and a storage tank is installed at the top next to the well. From the storage tank, water is distributed to consumers through an external pipeline. pipeline
