Introduction:
Drilling a well and setting up a pump is an essential way to provide you, your livestock, and crops with clean and fresh water. To have a well drilled or pump made is not only a nice way to access fresh water, it gives you fantastic health benefits and saves you money on your water bill! Drilling a well is a great addition to property, but it’s important to make sure that it’s done correctly. If it’s not done right, your well could collapse, causing you to lose the ability to access water and waste the money you spent to get the job done right. With over 30 years of experience we can help you with all of your pumping and drilling needs.
Step 1 – Site Assessment and Planning:
Property Survey:
It’s important when drilling a well and setting up a pump, to consider the location of where you want to place it. You’re going to want to truly evaluate the land and soil for the best machinery performance and the water source for the cleanest source in the area or you won’t get the level of quality you’re looking for. We serve areas in Southern Utah, Northern Arizona, and Southeastern Nevada and have found the best ways to evaluate the Utah soil, assess the Arizona land, and find the best source of water in Nevada. It’s truly crucial to effectively analyze the land, soil, and water source when drilling a well and setting up a water pump.
Permits and Regulations:
Another vital step before drilling your well or setting up your pumping station is having the proper permits and regulations, ensuring compliance with local and state laws. We at Anzalone drilling and pumps LLC have the proper permits to help serve those in Utah, Nevada, and Arizona, ensuring that no problems can arise with the local government. You too will need those proper permits and regulations for your equipment to guarantee you won’t have issues with the local government.
Step 2 – Drilling the Well:
Drilling Methods:
When drilling a well, there are several methods in which you can go about doing so. The most common methods of drilling are Mud Rotary and Air Rotary. Mud Rotary drilling is the use of mud, bentonite, and water to help support the boreholes within the drill. This specifically is a great choice for land with loose sediment. A great benefit of Mud Rotary is its safety, it protects against possible gas zones and gives a seal against water bearing zones! Air Rotary Drilling uses air, water, and foam to circulate the air and cool down the drill bit. The air also helps remove drill cutting which is essential in all drilling operations to keep the hole clean and bit moving freely. These are the most efficient and effective forms of drilling and both of these are provided by us!
Borehole Preparation:
When drilling your well, its important to make sure that your borehole is properly protected and stable when drilling it into your well. To drill in your borehole, you can use several types of drill rigs, but once it’s been drilled, it needs to be stable and strong to withstand any possible cave-ins and it must be cased with grout to keep the well from being contaminated. Make sure when drilling your well, that your borehole is properly lined, cased, and stabilized. We also are ready to help fix, maintain, and help set up your proper borehole.
Water Quality Conditions:
Having good water quality for your well is pivotal when drilling. It’s also vital to check the water conditions before you drill. If you don’t check for clean water, it can end up being contaminated or the water could stop flowing. It’s truly important to make sure it’s clean and the water will safely flow through the well. We at Anzalone drilling and pumps LLC have experience checking and ensuring the water quality in Utah, Arizona, and Nevada. Water quality conditions are key in drilling your well.
