How to find their own water borehole on their summer cottage - effective ways

only experts can determine the exact location for the installation of an independent source of water supply.But if the territory already inhabited by, friendly, their work will create a lot of difficulties to the owner, and in the first place, the need to use technology.

Except that it still needs to somehow drive (to dismantle part of the fence, maybe cut down some bushes), have to put up with the fact that the drill rig will produce the excavation in several "control" points, that is, to moveon the site.

How to minimize these difficulties and to find their own water wells, using only simple tools, on what grounds, visually, you can determine its presence in the soil, entirely relying on centuries-old experience of ancestors - all this the reader can learn from the present reviewuncomplicated, including folk and methods and techniques.

are looking for water with the help of technical means

aneroid barometer

Such devices belong to the category of household.The prefix "aneroid" (dp / Gk.) Means dry.The presence of an underground horizon (the results are approximate) is determined by comparing the pressure measurement data at different points.Using the barometer is possible only on the condition that next to the site or it has any body of water.Artificial (eg, pond, wells) or natural - there is no difference in principle.

measurement procedure

first held in open source, and the second - at the point where you want to drill.It is believed that 1 mm Hg.Art.corresponds to 13 m. Therefore, if the difference in the readings of the instrument, for example, 0.8, then the water at a selected location lies approximately 13 m x 0.8 = 10.4 m below the level of the reservoir.

dowsing method is well known and effective way to search for water.Varieties of devices and methods are many.With self-searching is better to use two curved wire - aluminum or copper (frame, vine and some other "devices" to work a bit more complicated).Their shape is clear from the figure:

in each hand - one by one.To be freely rotatable, they are placed in the tube, which simultaneously fulfill the function of handles (holders).For this purpose, suitable even hollow elder (as a variant, the cut cane or the like), if it exists at the site or adjacent to it.

search technology

horizontal part rods should be placed parallel to the ground.

scheme of movement on the territory - either.The main thing - to find the point where the wire will change the position and cross.This place should be noted (for example, put a peg), and have to continue the search from it.Moving in different directions, you can determine the configuration of an underground horizon and find the spot where the water comes to the surface closest.At this point the wires will behave as actively as possible.It is here and it is desirable to drill.

Crockery

In principle, any suitable, for example, a glass jar, even though our ancestors have always used a clay pot.Any capacity to design of experiments must be completely dry inside!

Option №1 - put the dishes on the pre-selected place.After one day check.If its walls fogged (condensation appeared), it means that there is water in the soil.

Option №2 - used vessel and any material characterized by intense moisture absorption.For example, salt, silica gel (commercially eat for 50 - 55 $ / kg), a piece of brick (silicate).Selected "absorber" liquid loaded into the container, which is wrapped in a thick cloth and buried in the ground (shallow enough for 40 - 50 cm).

The next day checked the degree of saturation with moisture filling.Silica gel (depending on the brand), changes color, salt darkens (and to the touch, you can check it remained dry or wet).

To better define saturation, before placing the container in the ground it is necessary to make a preliminary weighing (with a desiccant).The same - and after excavation.Comparison of the results allows to draw some conclusions.

How to find the water visually

on evaporation

If there are deposits in the ground aquifers (about the level of groundwater wrote in detail here), then these segments over the territory in the morning haze mist is formed.He can climb as a "pillar" or the club - this is not important.According to the density of the "cloud" can be judged on the approximate amount of the horizon and the depth of its occurrence.Than it is closer to the surface, the fog is thicker, richer.According

configuration

areas in the lowlands of the likelihood of the presence of underground water is much higher than in the plain.

Vegetation

Everyone knows that all members of the flora are divided into various categories, including, and on the basis of their "relationship" to the water.One needs a lot of it, and they need abundant watering, the other the minimum cost that nature provides.Therefore, they naturally grow in locations where they are "feeding" of the soil moisture is sufficient.

necessary to take a closer look in the first place to the weeds in the area, especially since it will provide information not only about the water reserves in the ground, but also on the approximate depth of its location.In each area - its flora, and all necessary information can be found on the Internet.Suffice it to specific examples, based on the most common in most parts of the Russian plants.

few comments

search of water has to be meaningful, otherwise most of the work will be done in vain.Accurate, unambiguous guidance on the definition of a place of drilling wells in the presentation of "here" can not be given for several reasons, as all areas - different.

• First, the configuration of aquifers affected by soil composition, terrain.
• Secondly, the climate is particularly dependent intensity of their content, the volume of water reserves.
• Third, distance from natural waters (lake, river).
• Fourth, the specific territory.For example, large-scale construction, deployed far away from the area, can greatly change the geometry of aquifers.Its characteristics also affect the location of roads in the district, adjacent areas (quantity, destination, and so on).

following schemes give only a rough idea of ​​the underground aquifers.

In this you can navigate to those owners whose plots are located not far from natural water bodies or the so-called "between two rivers".

But owning and such general information, you can determine the optimal location for drilling a well with a high probability.The fact that the first time, may not be able to "get" is not too complicate the task.Understanding the horizons of the location, their configuration, the amount of test drilling will reduce to a minimum.

Not every water reservoir suitable for installation in it well.Only the knowledge of their characteristics will help to build an autonomous water supply system.

«perched»

It lies shallow.It can be used only for irrigation and other host / needs.is not suitable for cooking, so this water layer (rainfall and is predominantly the result of snow melting) inadequate filtered.Moreover, there is a risk of penetration of this effluent horizon (for example, due to defects in the sewer system).

Groundwater

They are cleaned, and it is to this level drilled wells so-called "on the limestone" pits for the wells.

Layer «artesian»

Highest Quality (for chemical / water composition), but also the deepest.It may lie at the level of 70 m or more.To equip a well alone is unrealistic.
