I see you use crimped electrical butt connectors. Do you ever use heat and solder and shrink wrap for electrical connections?

I love the way you do your works. I would have loved it if saw the way you connected it to power

Common type well installed here in central arizona. Where is the psi tank? I like your "dog"

And for the love of god...... STOP using pvc male adapters and for that matter, why on earth would any person use a brass male threaded into a plastic npt? At least use a hose clamp to keep it from spitting. New sub

Good thing brass isnt a magnet for cold weather. I would've went for the Woodford poking out a couple of inches. Record the next repair so we can learn.

Love watching these videos.😄😄😄

capacitor blew in the first of two I bought... the 2nd one has been running good for 3 months now

Thanks Bro, you gave me the idea about how to fish out my fallen pump. People were charging more than $1000 for the job and that too not giving any guarantee.. I made the same hook myself and attached a steel cable with it, it got stuck in same way like in your video.. and pulled it out with help of Hydra ... Took me one hour to retrieve it, as it was 300 foot deep down.... Thanks once again for your information.

Love your content. My well pump failed during the night. I did call a well pump repair guy and I assisted him every step of the way, and I knew exactly what to do and expect thanks to your channel. I just needed his experience, help and his well dog. We got the whole system up and going today, to include replacing the PVC well pipe with new black poly, new wire, and a fancy electronic pump drive, a Pentek Intellidrive, and a new Berkeley 10 gpm 3/4 HP pump. The system works beautifully. I really appreciate your content.

Just finished watching your video, I don’t have a well pump issue, but I do have a pressure tank bladder that failed. I figured I would watch your video just in case I ever have to replace the pump. While watching your video I had to laugh, I’m one of those people that works behind a computer from home. I’ve been a Sr. Network Engineer/Architect for about 15 years, It’s been my most rewarding career, and I’ve had many, everything from outside sales, truck driver, long haul owner operator (tanker), to a small business recycling company owner! Your video literally leaves no stone unturned with regards to install. My only question is, when I am forced to change the pump, what model has the best warranty, or best track record for longevity? Since I’m not in the industry, I must rely on somebody (trustworthy & knowledgeable) who’s been doing this a while, and you Sir fit the bill. I’ve watched tens of thousands of videos on UA-cam, from automotive to household DIY, seriously name a video or a project and I’m 99.999% sure I’ve watched one if not dozens on any given topic. The way you produce your videos, the content you provide, and your delivery, I didn’t even have to watch it on 1.5x speed, for me, that’s about the best compliment I can give you, there are maybe a handful of videos that earn that designation out of the tens of thousands. One last question I would have for you is, everything I’ve researched points to the well-X-trol being the best water pressure tanks for a well system, do you agree, or do you think there’s something better, or just as good? The price point on the Amtrol water tanks are hefty, but I’d feel more at ease with an expert opinion. FYI, I did hit the subscribe button, I also bookmarked your website, when the time comes, I’ll purchase products from you, it’s the best support I can give, with three kids and a wife, and this ridiculous administration we’re being forced to endure, times are tough!

Ao shits are the worse for this smell and the calcium build up in them is ridiculous. Ive been seeing alot of this sulfur smell in city water lately. Idk why.

I just discovered your channel a few days ago, and I can't stop watching it. What is your and your dad's name. I was in the oil field for about 20 years, and your videos are really great.

Dousing Rods Work!

You destroyed history, replace worn parts and call it a day. Typical cowboy

this is pretty much my situation but my overflow is over 30 gallons per minute and they put a baloon down 6 feet and it sceals the water from coming up but now i'm thinking of making a huge natural trout pond with this spring fed water ,, but the winters here in canada get cold and wondering what will happen at -30

You often tell us you are in 2nd and then 3rd gear. What does that mean? Is it like a car transmission and the higher the gear the more pressure being applied in the fracking process?

do you have any videos on filtration systems. I am a new well owner and need solid un bias information. I have really been enjoying your content. keep it up.

Why don’t you change the breaker to 220 and have a two wire 220 system? Far more efficient.! Also the next guy that changes the tank won’t put the same information on the new tank. That’s why for marking land the old timers used stone walls rather than trees.

what might cause a no water situation but ONLY after over an hour of pumping? We have a lawn sprinkler system that was turned on for the season in May. The sprinklers run for a duration of 2 hours every other day and this system has been in service for ~8 years. This no water condition is a new phenomena this year. After pumping for over 1 hours time, there is no water in the line/tank. You can repeat the situation like clockwork but only after 1 hours time (it is not an intermittent issue). I am leaning toward this being a well/aquifer problem, not a pump issue - I think the well is running out of water to pump. Well pump age is questionable but it's not THAT old. We have had no pressure issues or other water issues any other time of day or with normal usage. This only happens when the sprinklers are in use for over an hour. To make matters worse, it's my father's water system and he REFUSES to believe there is a problem so my diagnosis has to be discreet until I can further conclude what the issue may be. He also refuses to turn the sprinklers off. :::facepalm::: thanks! Great content by the way!

Well done there are ALWAYS people that criticise other trade persons All you can do is your best, and be honest with people As I am sure you are. Regards from a retired plumber in QLD Australia

Good job well done Nice to see someone doing things correctly Regards from Qld

Great video very interesting. Best video I have seen ever. Thanks.

Great videos we are getting a well in 3 weeks or so in Sault Ste. Marie Ontario learning a great deal from you keep up the good work

It's not wether you "believe" in dowsing rods. It's wether you can make the darn things work or not for your situation or whatnot : )

Just bought a house. Well seamed to be working fine first few weeks. Now the exterior holding tank is empty its about 500Gal and I have 2 tanks like the one you have here except they are about 3-4 times the size. 1 seems full and the other is empty. 1. should I replace the full one? 2. Or should I check to see if there is dirt underneath the switch where you take a screwdriver and push it down into the coper line 3. The pump seems pretty old too although It seems to still be working good when the system was working. 4. The pressure gauge has water in it, is that normal or should I get a new gauge? 5. Should the tanks or pump or anything for the well be underneath a shaded area or should I build a cover for them? 6. Would you be willing to do a call or something to help me diagnose the problem for some sort of consultation fee? I really want to learn myself instead of someone trying to get me for hundreds if not more.

Awesome video

What material did you back fill with?

People like "This Man" ( POS ) , Are Not Worth Your Time !!

My well pump needed replaced, been in there since 1988. But, this video helped me diagnose what my issue was so that when I called for estimates I didn't have people showing up with 9 million dollar quotes. I couldn't have replaced the pump myself, but at least I knew, for the most part, what was going on. Thank you.

Mr George ya the new driver no good 😅

And if your files were on computer you would have known that immediately....

OMG...

Hi name is jim 82 years old.live in Las Vegas. I spend the summer at my daughter and son-in-law, in Chesterton In. 46304. We have 2 wells 3 years old. The one for the garden plugs in, in the barn through the open door. Well is about 30 feet away,we want to put the electric on the outside with a on and off box and burry a wire to the well. What to use at the barn and what gauge wire to the well and how deep to berry, and how or what to use at the well,? Every thing will be outside. Thanks very much really enjoy you show, jim

Hope you see this. I just had to replace my well pump shallow water jet. The pressure switch is preset 30 to 50. I forget the formula for the pressure tank what the air pressure should be on it. I believe it is a 30 gallon pressure tank if you’d be able to tell me that be great.

What size PVC do you have going from the well to the house? Does your PVC diameter match the same as the hose you have from the pump up to the head or is it bigger? Im handy enough to watch your videos and recreate everything, just want to make sure im getting the correct material. Only want to do this once.

Can you use solar system instead of generator in this setup! If yes what size? Thanks

Check your wires for faults, the hot and neutral will be shorted through the motor disconnect both at the house, don't use the ground because the signal will bleed off through the earth.

Hello, I stumbled upon one of your videos yesterday. And have been binge watching ever since. My wife and I are currently looking for property for a family compound location and retirement. A lot of the properties that we are finding are going to require a well done. And a couple of them have existing wells already. I'm sure somewhere in the comments or videos your location has been provided. But I have not yet found it. I know I could do a Google search of your company name and narrow it down. Hopefully you're in my area of Northern Alabama because I really like to hire you for potential work on our new property. I love the fact that your father is passing on a trade in a business and the fact that you want to carry it on. Great content great information and great camera work! Keep doing what you're doing and God bless!

Nice to see someone that takes pride in his work.

I bit of leg protection when using chainsaw might be good. Think long term, dont get hurt. Good pacing on the video and good information. I enjoyed it.

what is the deepest you will punch?

Got to have sufficient clearance for your doohickey!

It's NOT magic bro....this whole plant is, in essence, a giant capacitor.

No comment on this video but I have a question. When is a pump control box required? Haven’t seen this discussed in any of your videos. My well (50 yrs old) had one on it but it was removed. I don’t use the well often ( lawn watering only because water is muddy) but I left it powered for 2 days and now the 9 yr old pump is burned out. Could the absence of the control box be a factor? I don’t know the pump size or depth.

Time for @Bending with Brandon.

I had a well drilled in Mass. in 1977 with 6" steel casing they welded the joints.

Here's an idea have you ever thought about doing the odd lessons in high school teach some of the kids at schools your trade and other contractors just a thought

Hi I've been watching your videos and find it interesting so now subed

I have a question sir. I have a new well that is about one month old. I have been running it one hour on, three hours off to clear the well. The water is "dirty" when I run the pump with the spigot on the pressure wide open. When I run at half open or less, the water is clear... any ideas? Thx in advance. Love your videos
