Following our article on creating a well , let's now see the different types of wells available. As you can imagine, a water well will be used to collect rainwater. By digging the earth in the right place with the help of professionals in the trade, you will be able to implement a water reserve and enjoy it for free throughout the year.
There are also more traditional wells and more technical and new generation wells which will be just as interesting to operate. Starting with the traditional open-air well which will be fed by the various infiltrations as well as runoff, for example, the artesian well which will find its source in a water table provided for this purpose. If you have the idea of setting up a traditional well, you will need to respect various constraints: namely that the soil must be studied before starting.
Certain soils such as shale or sandstone are not at all suitable for this type of drilling. This type of well also offers fairly reasonable measurements, especially in diameter, because this well can measure from 1 to 1.20m. Not to mention the depth which can range from 5 to 10m.
Now let's move on to a well known as the soaker's well, which looks like a drain for rainwater. Namely that this soaked well will have the sole function of evacuating rainwater, such as water from various atmospheric precipitations.
Other water can still be assimilated, which will be: water from garden watering, water from washing public or private roads, not to mention water from fountains, springs or even pool drains after having been removed from all of its chlorine. Unlike wastewater, the connection of rainwater to the public sewerage network is not compulsory.
ANOTHER WELL WHICH IS EQUALLY WELL KNOWN CAN BE USED
It is neither more nor less than the artesian well. This artesian well which may not mean anything to you is a type of well from which water will spurt out very spontaneously, which will rise from the water table by its sole power.
The artesian well is therefore presented as a well drilled in a pressurized water table. The pressure of the aquifer is such that the piezometric line emerges from the ground. Drilling will allow you to recover this water: its analysis will then be compulsory to verify that it is suitable for consumption.
And finally, another well will be offered to you, which will be neither more nor less than the infiltration well which will manage the rainwater. It therefore has specific techniques, whether by lack of sewer or for the sake of water savings, you will be able to manage the water coming from your roof, using an infiltration then .
The purpose of this well will therefore be to replace the principle of the soak in the sink. It also allows rainwater to be stored temporarily, then will evacuate it by infiltration into the ground.
