Incredible what we found in this well! We pulled this we’ll pump up that was still working! Age?

What happens here

The process begins by accessing the wellhead, typically located within a small well house or shed. A worker uses steady, upward force to begin pulling the well pipe from the well casing. The extracted pipe is visibly encrusted with significant mineral deposits and rust, indicating long-term water quality issues. As the pipe emerges, a tape measure is used to periodically gauge the depth of the components remaining in the well.

Goal: Begin the removal of the well pipe and track its depth.

Tools and materials

  • Measuring tape Milwaukee — To measure the depth of the pipe and pump as it is extracted
  • Well pipe — The conduit for water and support for the pump, being extracted
  • Work gloves — Protecting hands from sharp edges, rust, and grime
