3 Distance Requirements For New Wells In The State of Texas The State of Texas has set minimum distance requirements for new wells. These rules keep wells away from property lines, septic tanks, septic fields, and sewer lines. The rules help prevent the contamination of the aquifer. The state requires that a standard well annulus be cemented 10 from the surface. With this completion method, the well must be 50 from property lines, 50 from septic tanks, and 100 from septic fields. Standard Cemented Well If the new well is too close, the well can be pressure cemented. This will allow the property line to be as close as 5 away and the septic field can be up to 50 away. The septic tank must maintain the 50 setback as well. Pressure Cemented Well For wells that are installed where the area is serviced by a city sewer system, new wells must be 5 from property lines and 50 from all sewer lines. Well Near Sewer Line Some groundwater districts have setback requirements that supersede the state requirements. These setbacks vary from district to district. Check with us about the distance requirements and possible exceptions for your site.

5 Trinity, Glenrose & Edwards formations of Central TX The layers of limestone and clay that lay below our feet are very fascinating. The layers slope downward to the Southeast and rise to the Northwest. Generally, most recharge for these formations occur where the porous layers of the rock outcrop to the surface. The main production zones are the Edwards, the Glenrose layers and the Lower Trinity. The Glenrose and the Lower Trinity make up the Trinity Aquifer, while the Edwards is a separate aquifer. In most cases, the thickness and porosity of the formations are smaller as they rise toward the surface. This means that they produce less volume and are more prone to be affected by droughts. Formations that are deeper are generally thicker and have more substantial porosity. This leads to higher flows and longer drought tolerances. Conversely, the water quality tends to be degraded the longer the water stays in the formation. Therefore, the deeper zones have poorer quality water than those in more shallow layers.

Submersible Water Well System with Hide a Well Many of our clients are concerned about the final look of the equipment.

This technology is not new, but it is rarely used in Texas. It was developed for cold climate areas where there are freeze concerns.

As you can see in the picture, the well head can be as small as 13 in height and 5 in diameter.

6 Submersible Water Well System with Hide a Well Many of our clients are concerned about the final look of the equipment. For those special sites that require a smaller profile, we have developed the Hide-a-Well completion method. This technology is not new, but it is rarely used in Texas. It was developed for cold climate areas where there are freeze concerns. But, the technology does work well to provide you with a very small well head. As you can see in the picture, the well head can be as small as 13 in height and 5 in diameter. The cost to install this option is very similar to the standard completion methods. Of course, we only use brass equipment to prevent corrosion and top it off with an aluminum well cover. The equipment can be painted or easily covered to conceal the well. Wellhead measuring only 13 high.

7 Storage Tank Systems submersible pump on/off storage tank pressure tank booster pump on/off temporarily well head booster pump booster pump on/off permanently Tired of sulfur gas in your well water?

The storage tank can give you a reservoir of water that can be used if your well pump fails. The customer can select the amount of reserved water which can be accessed by flipping a single switch. Then with careful use of your remaining water you can continue to have full flow and pressure while we service your well. If necessary, your storage tank can be filled by a local water delivery service. How about more water pressure and better flow?
