Water at home - general information

The most important thing needed for a good water supply system in the house - the existence of an inexhaustible source of water. They may be as a city water supply network - for homes located in various towns and suburbs, and artesian wells that supply water to the small housing estates and cottages. In extreme cases, drinking water sources can be wells, natural ponds, river.

A set of high quality water allow artesian wells, as they take water from interstitial layers located at a depth of 200 meters. Sometimes you can drill a well for water supply directly into the basement. Remember: the bore should be after the construction of basement walls, and at the same time before his ceiling. For these wells should be used down-hole Taco 006 pumps "water cannon". These pumps can operate in wells with high sand content.

Water-lifting plant, storage tank and filtration unit - that's part of the traditional system of automatic water "fountain-house." The cost of pumping equipment is dependent on two factors: the height of water lifting and its productivity. If the level of water rise from the natural reservoirs and wells does not exceed 7.5 meters, commonly used surface Grundfos pumps, for example, such as surface Grundfos 14-42 F "Grundfos" production of the pump company Grundfos. They are installed directly into the house and connected to a well with a hose or tubing. Stability to the sand is extremely important for these pumps, so you should prefer stainless steel pumps, which have qualities such as abrasion resistance and durability. Well pumps should be easy to understand - in fact they should be cleaned occasionally to prevent. Keep in mind, and the protection of equipment against unforeseen disruptions in supply - here you will help power strips and surge protectors.

The problem of water drive a tank - to maintain a constant pressure water supply network. Fits most often in the attic. Water people need for drinking, washing dishes, cooking, washing things, watering lawns, washing of the body. One member of the family consumes about 50 liters of water per day. Required volume of water drive the tank is determined by the product of this number by the number of family members. That is, if a family of five persons tank capacity shall be not less than 50 * 5 = 250 liters. Location for the pump - the basement. Manage them best out of the kitchen, using the manual starter.

In addition to traditional steel pipe in the water system used plumbing pipeline of polymers - polypropylene and polystyrene. They are more expensive but easier to install and throughput by 25-30% greater than that of steel. In the suburbs of large cities, usually water in the aquifers of poor quality, so the system provides cleaning plant.

To disinfect water from herbicides and pesticides, nitrates and nitrites used special hlorpatrony prefabrication. Hlorpatron lowered into the mine pit to a depth of 0.5 meters above the bottom. The service life of the cartridge - 30 days, then it should be replaced by another. But for a complete removal of heavy metals, salts, odors also requires additional filters.
