Proper well: how to arrange the water intake on the site according to the law, domestic alternative

The owners of suburban land often decide to build a well. Place for him should be selected in accordance with current legislation. About the well location rules read the article

By purchasing a vacation site owners are faced with the necessity of arrangement of the well. To this object corresponds to sanitary and hygienic standards, it is safe in operation, it is important to choose the right place for the construction of the mine.

For our office addressed the reader, who has faced a similar problem: "I bought a cheap plot, which was not let down centralized water supply. To ensure country house with water, thinking about the construction of the well. In the Internet I read that you need to choose the right place to drill a well. I have a site with a fairly modest size, which built a small house, outbuildings. How to determine the optimal location for the construction of the well? "

We often receive questions like these. We have studied the topic and give detailed answers to questions from readers. Next, consider the basic legal requirements, building codes and rules governing this process.

Construction is desirable to plan well before the start of the construction of all facilities on the site. However, most often it turns out, in the case of our reader, that the house has already been built, has put outbuildings. What to do in this case? It is necessary to carefully consider the site plan. When choosing a place to build a well taken into account ease of use of the object. It is important that the water intake point was located at a suitable distance from the sources of pollution, as well as other facilities.

Well should not interfere with the passage, harm located near objects including other wells, buildings neighbors.

rules of law

During the construction of the well site on private account of the requirements of the following legislation:

• SNIP 30/02/97. This document was amended in 2019. Now, in the construction of wells with water consumption of 100 cubic meters per day is required to register the object to obtain a license and pay taxes. The SNIP specifies recommendations for the construction of the stretch. Local administration CSP type or another company in the regulation points corresponding requirements for the location of objects. In drawing up the charter takes into account the recommendations of SNiP.
• SP 53.13330.2011. This guide allows you to define the diagram area is the right place for the well. It is used during the development of the plan put before the commencement of construction of residential and commercial facilities.
• SP 31.13330.2012. These rules build on their own plot of objects sanitary-consumer type.

Most often in suburban areas provide mine shafts. They are built with the water source to the next site. by choosing a workplace for the construction of the well should be entrusted specialist. If you do not take into account the depth, the amount of water intake point of the neighbors, after the construction of the water can go to the new well. This will lead to disputes with neighbors. They won the case in court, and your well will be closed for your money. So you should carefully approach the selection process of water intake point.

ideal location

Owners of suburban areas have to comply with a set of rules when placing objects allotment. It is especially difficult to find the optimal location for drilling the owners of narrow and small areas. Ideally located well should:

• Be sufficiently distant from the foundations, so as not to cause the destruction of the house because of the undermining of the base.
• Do not disturb the neighbors.
• Do not be too far from home. Otherwise, you need a complex system of communication that will be expensive, will become clogged.
• Defend well away from sources of pollution.
• Do not interfere with the passage, passage, trees, truck crops.
• Spaced from the road.
• Be above the level of the septic tank (sump) on their own and neighboring areas.
• Defend from objects in the area to set SNIP distance.

Comply with all requirements at times very difficult. If you can not find a suitable place to drill, not always there is water. This makes the search for a suitable location of a complex process.

The distance from the foundation

Simply select the optimal location for the construction of the well shaft when the house is not built yet. If the building is already there, it is worth considering the type of foundation. Particularly affected by the proximity of the well shaft weakly deepened the foundations of houses. If a building is built on strip foundations on clay, well do as far as possible.

In accordance with SNIP 2.30.97, the minimum distance from the well to the foundation of the house is 3 m. But it is better to build a well at a distance of 5 m.

This security measure is necessary, since after the digging of the mine water is rising by 1.5-2 m above the aquifer. Therefore wells shallow depth will be the most problematic in the operation. Such mines are settling in areas where ground water come close to the surface. After the arrangement of the well stem flooding may occur. The water level will rise, will seep through the shaft wall.

This leads to washing away the foundation. Over time, it will break down, which leads to very undesirable consequences for the building. To live in such a house is not safe. The trunk of the well should be sealed with high quality. It is best to apply in the case of reinforced concrete rings. Using mine construction stone, brick or wood, you need to select quality materials for sealing.

An alternative solution

If the house is not built, it is possible to make a well directly in the building. This solves the problem of removing the well from different objects. The internal layout of the house must be properly designed. The well must be at an appropriate distance from the foundation.

Such a solution makes it possible to save space area, to reduce costs in the sector of water supply. First, on the hole portion is created, and then digging a pit for the foundation. Consider the type of soil, topographic features of the terrain.

The advantages of such a solution is the comfort in the regeneration of the communications system to supply water to the bathroom, toilet, kitchen. Required minimum number of pipes and the pump with less power. This reduces the cost of improvement of water supply system.

Building a well inside the house and has a number of drawbacks. For example, if the equipment, feed water goes down, you need a well repair. This may require special equipment, which can not be used in a cellar. In order to periodically clean the shaft, it is necessary to provide sufficient space around the well. finishing materials in the basement must be resistant to moisture.

The construction of the water intake point in the house reduces the amount of usable space. Therefore, this option is not suitable for our readers to seek advice from the experts. He has already built a small house on the plot. Therefore, to equip the well inside the building makes no sense.

Distance from other objects

According to sanitary and construction requirements, the well should be located at a suitable distance from other objects put:

• from buildings for keeping animals (rabbits, chickens, dogs, etc...) - 30 m;
• from farm buildings without a foundation - at least 1 m;
• from trees - 4 m;
• from shrubs - 1 m;
• from septic tanks, cesspools, toilets and other objects that can cause pollution - at least 50 m.

Removal of a septic tank

If the site no centralized water supply, the sewerage system and the total no. Settling a septic tank, which will be an excellent alternative to the sump. Modern equipment for battery drainage has many advantages. But it is still a source of possible contamination of drinking water.

To fulfill the requirements of hygiene, septic must be located at a distance from the well not less than 20 m (provided that the sealed container is used). Uncleanness eventually evacuated assenizatorskaya machine. Therefore, a septic tank in the vicinity of the roadway.

The same requirements are valid with respect to the septic tank neighbors. Their autonomous sewer system must be at a distance of 20-50 meters, depending on the type of the septic tank.

The distance from the fence

In suburban areas guard extends along the street or roadway and landmark border between plots. Clear right to withdraw from the fences in modern SNIP and SanPiNs not. However, the recommended distance is 5 m, if it is a portion between the guard and the roadway. This helps prevent contamination of drinking water.

From the fence neighbors well may be located at a distance of 1 m. However, the jurisprudence shows that the problems arise if recede from boundaries at least 2 m. In this case, the well will not interfere with its neighbors.

Well close to home

If the water intake point can be created in the immediate vicinity of a residential building, it is the easiest option. Settling a manhole at the inlet pipe to the building. Outdoor wiring is installed at a distance of 20 cm from the wall of the house. Therefore, if the manhole has a diameter of 1 m from its center to the building must be at least 70 cm.

Well away from home

It is more difficult to design a plan of the site, when the water intake point is located far away from home. In this case, mount several manholes. The maximum allowable distance between them is 15 m.

Since tap path in this case is long, you may need to create twists. In places where communications are changing direction and developing are rotary shafts. Connecting pipes must be very accurate. In places turns occur most frequently blockages.

Even more difficult is the situation with the laying of the track from the well, if a part has a vertical drop. The tubes have a considerable length, so they lay in this case at different depths. For this purpose Perepadnaya design.

The course must be held at an angle in relation to the well. Manholes equip at a distance from other objects. It is regulated exclusively features relief portion.

Search for optimal location to drill a well is challenging. Therefore, this work must be carried out by experts. The decision affects several factors simultaneously. Compliance with all requirements regarding well arrangement makes it possible not only to create a long-lasting water intake point, but also to ensure the safe operation of a dwelling house, other objects on the site.
