More recently, when constructing wells, mainly concrete rings or wooden log cabins were used. These designs had a number of fairly significant drawbacks. For example, in the joints between concrete elements, soil and sludge were constantly packed. Therefore, they had to be cleaned periodically. Wooden log houses quickly rotted and required replacement.
Today, for this purpose it is more expedient to use a much more modern material -
plastic rings for a
well. These elements are a durable
corrugated pipe. After the well is filled with water, the design of the rings will not allow it to contact the ground, as it is absolutely tight. Such structures do not need to be endlessly cleaned, like concrete, for example. In addition, they are much more durable than wood.
The height of the standard section is about 2 m. The weight of this element reaches only 50 kg. Therefore, unlike concrete rings, the installation of the entire structure can be carried out without the use of any equipment. Installing pipes is easy with a maximum of two people. The same goes for transportation. If for transportation of reinforced concrete it is required to order special equipment, then rings for plastic wells are quite possible to deliver on personal vehicles. It is extremely convenient and can reduce construction costs.
A drinking well made of plastic rings is arranged in principle in the same way as a regular one. Preliminary geological surveys. To do this, contact a specialist. It is quite difficult to independently determine the place of occurrence of water. Of course, there are quite accurate methods, but a professional will cope with this much better and faster. Ultimately, the correct determination of the location of the closest occurrence of water in the area will also allow to reduce the cost of digging.
In order to arrange a well, they first dig a hole in itself. These structures can be divided into two groups - open and closed. The first type is located mainly on clay soils. Crushed stone is poured at the bottom of the pit, and then the plastic rings for the well themselves are collected. Seams between them are smeared with sealant. The diameter of the pit should exceed the diameter of the rings by several centimeters. In this case, installation will be much easier. After mounting the rings, the gap between the walls of the pit and the rings is filled with gravel and rammed.
In loose soil, closed type wells are arranged. Since it is problematic to dig a deep hole in such land, a small one is dug up first. A ring is placed in it. Further, soil is removed from under it. As soon as it sinks a sufficient distance from the surface, the next element is installed on it. Thus collect all the plastic rings for the wells. Their price, by the way, is not too high, and can be about 1000-1500 rubles apiece, depending on the height. As a result, it is possible to dig a hole of sufficient depth, avoiding soil crumbling. Crushed stone is poured into the bottom, and a lid is mounted on top.
Such constructions are used for the device not only of drinking wells, but also of examination, drainage, and also sewer. In any of these cases, a durable construction that is easy to operate is obtained. Rings for a well plastic can have the most different diameter. For ordinary elements, this indicator is 60â90 cm.
