Turnkey water supply of the cottage. Water from open sources

One of the conditions for a comfortable country life is a reliable water supply in the cottage. Since the central water supply outside the city is quite a rare thing, the issue of establishing an autonomous water supply system, the owner of the site has to decide on his own. Water supply of a private house from a well is one of the most convenient ways ensure everyday comfort.

To equip a water supply system from a well, both sandy and artesian sources can be used. With the help of a sand well, it is easy to solve the issue of water supply to suburban area, at which the water consumption on average does not exceed 1.5 cubic meters / hour. This volume is enough for a small house.

The main advantages of a sand well are the speed of construction, the low cost of construction and the possibility of arranging without the use of special large-sized construction equipment.

But for a country cottage where they live all year round, sand well - far from the best choice. The depth of aquifers during the arrangement of such wells does not exceed 50 meters, which is not a guarantee of water purity. Although the water in a sandy well is cleaner than a well, it can contain all sorts of impurities and aggressive compounds. The reason for this is the close location of the sandy aquifer relative to surface water. The productivity of the well is relatively small (about 500 liters on average), and the service life is short - about 10 years.

Most best option- an artesian well, which is equipped at a depth of 100 meters or more. The main advantage of such a well is an unlimited supply of water. High Quality. Such a well is capable of delivering up to 10 cubic meters per hour. This is enough to provide water for a large area with a house. And the service life of such a source, even with active use may exceed more than half a century.

Water located at a considerable depth is filtered and purified naturally. Due to this, it does not contain impurities and pathogenic bacteria that are harmful to the human body.

If a sand well can be drilled and equipped with one's own hands, then when arranging an artesian well, it is necessary to involve specialists. Although the cost of drilling an artesian well is quite high, it is not worth saving on this. It is necessary to entrust this stage of work to professional drillers, who, depending on the composition of the rocks underlying the site, will determine the aquifer and equip the well in accordance with all the rules of drilling technology. Thanks to a professional approach to well construction, you will save yourself from a number of system operation problems during operation.

Equipment for the arrangement of the water supply system

The technology for arranging water supply from a well with your own hands depends on the depth of the source and its characteristics.

An autonomous water supply scheme can be developed using the services of specialists, or you can take a suitable ready-made version from the network

One of the key elements in arranging the water supply system on the site is, which will ensure uninterrupted lifting and supply of water to the house from the well. For arrangement autonomous well it is enough to install a unit with a diameter of 3 or 4 ", equipped with additional protection against "dry running". This will prevent overheating and damage to the pump if the minimum water level in the source is reached.

The technology of water supply from a well also provides for the installation of a plastic or metal tank - a caisson, which is placed so as to have free access to it, but at the same time prevent dirt or water from entering from external environment. It is necessary for the well and its further control during operation.

When arranging a water supply system from a well to a house, most often it is used pipes with a diameter of 25-32 mm made of metal-plastic - polymer material which is easy to bend and highly resistant to corrosion.

Water pipes are laid from the source to the house, deepening below the level of soil freezing (at least 30-50 cm)

Options for autonomous water supply from a well

Having a shallow well on the site, if the water level in the source allows, install or hand pump. essence automated system is that under the action of a submersible pump, water is pumped into a hydropneumatic tank, the capacity of which can vary from 100 to 500 liters.

When working with a shallow sand well, the best option is to equip an automated water supply system that will ensure uninterrupted water supply to the house.

The water storage tank itself is separated by a rubber membrane and a relay, thanks to which the water pressure in the tank is regulated. When the tank is full, the pump is turned off, if water is consumed, a signal is sent to turn on the pump and pump out water. This means that the pump can work both directly, supplying water to the system, and after reducing the pressure in the system to a certain level, in order to replenish the “reserves” of water in the hydropneumatic tank. The receiver itself (hydraulic tank) is placed in any convenient place at home, most often in the utility room.

From the caisson to the place where the pipe enters the house, a trench is laid, on the bottom of which they lay water pipe and electrical cable to power the pump. If possible, it is better to purchase a heating electric cable, which, in addition to direct destination, will protect the water pipe from freezing.

Method # 2 - with the installation of a deep pump

With this method of water supply submersible pump pumps water from the well into a storage tank, which is placed on an elevated point of the house.

Most often a place for arrangement storage tank taken away in one of the rooms on the second floor of the house, or in the attic. When placing a container in the attic, to prevent freezing of water in the winter months, the walls of the tank must be insulated

Due to the placement of the tank on a hill, the effect of a water tower is created, in which, due to the height difference between the hydraulic tank and the connection points, pressure arises when 1 m of water column is equal to 0.1 atmospheres. The tank can be made of stainless steel or food grade plastic. Capacity - from 500 to 1500 liters. The larger the volume of the tank, the greater the supply of water: in the event of a power outage, it will automatically flow into the tap.

Installing the end float switch will ensure automatic activation of the pump at the moment of lowering the water level in the tank.

Deep well pumps are used in cases where the distance to the water level in the well exceeds 9 meters or more

When choosing a pump, well productivity should be taken into account. Despite the fact that the power of the unit will only affect the rate of filling the water storage tank, when choosing a unit, it is better to start from the mark of the maximum water flow to the house.

The deep-well pump, together with the electric cable and pipe, is lowered into the well, suspended on a galvanized cable using a winch, which is installed inside the caisson. To keep me required pressure in the system and prevent pumping water back into the well, place above the pump check valve.

After installing all the elements of the system, it remains only to check the internal wiring to the connection points and connect the equipment to the control panel.

the total cost automatic system water supply is about 3000-5000 dollars. It depends on the depth of the source, the type of pump and the number of water intake points inside the house. From 30% to 50% of this amount goes to the engineering arrangement of the system, the rest of the expenses go to the elements that determine the level of living comfort.

Downhole pump and its piping for a domestic well:

You can increase the level of comfort not only in country cottages, but also in small village houses simply by running a water pipe. We will not assure you that this is easy, especially if the house old building. However, almost all work on the installation of plumbing in the house can be done by hand, without seeking help from specialists.

It is necessary to start work with drawing up a water supply scheme. This will help you not only not to miss anything in your work, but will also allow you to most accurately calculate the number of pipes.

According to the connection method, the circuit is divided into two types: serial and parallel.
Serial connection is suitable for the device of the system in a private house, which has a small area and few consumers. In this case, the water supply goes first from the source (well), then, for example, to the toilet room, from the room to and so on. That is, to each consumer in turn.

Therefore, when two or three consumers are turned on at the same time, the pressure on the one located farthest will be very low, unable to satisfy the needs. A water supply system according to this scheme is quite simple to arrange. We start the water supply from the source (well) to the first consumer. We put a tee on the pipe, and we get two outputs and one input to this consumer, and to all other consumers.
The parallel circuit assumes another inclusion of consumers. Here we already include a collector in the circuit. From the collector we lay water supply to each consumer. Choosing such a wiring system, you need to take into account that the cost will be higher, mainly due to the increase in the number of pipes, but this will justify itself in the future.

It is possible to connect water supply systems according to both schemes both from the well and from the system central water supply.

The plumbing scheme of the house consists of:


Plumbing scheme

1. source (, well or central water supply);
2. or a pump (needed if the source is or);
3. (for water accumulation);
4. filter for water purification;
5. tee, for future separation of hot and cold water supply;
6. Manifold with shutoff valves at each exit cold water;
7. boiler or;
8. collector for hot water.

Well or well

Where is the best place to get water from a well or well? The depth of the well is not more than 10 meters, while the well reaches up to 30. The water in the well is more polluted, so the water supply system will have to be equipped with several filters. For a well, you will need to purchase an expensive one.
In this case, the plumbing will look like:

  • If the length does not exceed 30 meters, then 25 mm inner diameter enough.
  • If more than 30 meters, then 32 mm will be optimal.
  • If the length is less than 10 meters, then you can get by with a diameter of 16 or 20 mm.

Let's not forget that there is still a pipe for the collector, on which it depends whether the water supply system can provide water to all consumers. One tap passes about 5 liters of liquid within a minute.


Now we count the number of consumers and compare with the following data:

  1. a diameter of 25 mm passes 30 liters per minute;
  2. diameter 32 mm - about 50 liters per minute;
  3. diameter 38 mm - 75 liters per minute.

If more than three people live in a private house, you need to add 40%, because all consumers can be used at the same time.

The choice of material for pipes in the house

Today the market offers us pipes from the following materials:


Metal-plastic is not afraid of corrosion, sunlight, but temperatures above 95 degrees are excluded for such systems. Therefore, such pipes are suitable for cold from a well or well.


Steel products are strong, durable and relatively inexpensive. But they are highly susceptible to corrosion. Also, when installing the plumbing system, you will have to independently cut the threads on each element.
products on the market recently, but are very popular. They are not subject to corrosion, do not oxidize, are durable. Their use allows the plumbing device to be made simply and quickly. But they connect. Probably, this is a disadvantage.

Parallel piping


We start the installation of water pipes from the source
. If we take water from a well, we install a submersible pump, if from a well, then a surface pump. We attach the pipe to the pump on the clamp. Sometimes a threaded adapter is used, it is also taken when attached to the central system. Then we lay pipes to a private house, to a hydraulic accumulator.

A hydraulic accumulator is needed in case of frequent interruptions in the water supply, and also if the water pressure in the system does not provide all people with a sufficient amount of liquid.


After the accumulator, we put a tee with shutoff valves. One outlet is used for laying to the water heater, and the other to the cold water supply manifold.
If you install filters, then they must be installed before the heater and before the cold water supply collector. We continue to lay the water supply from the boiler to the hot water collector.
From each circuit on two collectors we conduct wiring to consumers.

To date, there are several types of water supply systems for a country cottage:

  • central water supply;
  • well;
  • well;
  • artesian well.

All of them differ in the water intake system.

Central water supply

Connecting water to a country house from the central water supply is possible only if there is a main line nearby. To connect the water supply directly to it, you will need to apply for permission from the relevant organizations. Once permission has been obtained, the owner suburban area they will provide a plan that will indicate the exact place for connection and the depth of laying pipes for water supply.

Disadvantages of connecting to the central water supply:

1. Water pressure in pipes can change a lot.

2. There is a high content of chlorine in the water from the main.

All this is good for disinfecting the pipeline itself, but it will not have a very good effect on the condition of the water and its structure.


Connecting a country house to the central water supply system

Also, do not forget that in the event of an accident or a planned shutdown of the central water supply, the house will be left without water. For water supply services from the city highway, you will need to pay monthly according to the meter, which is installed in a special one.

Well

Providing a country house with water from a well or well is called autonomous water supply. The connection of such water supply depends only on the quality and composition of the soil on it.

It would be rational to use a well as a water supply system if the water on the site is at a depth of 4-15 m. It is necessary to take into account the fact that the aquifer must be quite large in volume. But there is a disadvantage of this type of water intake. The well can penetrate ground water, so the quality of water may deteriorate several times.


Water well device

Well benefits:

1. In the event of a power outage, water can be easily filled with a bucket.

2. Long service life (not less than 50 years).

3. Affordable cost when organizing this type of water supply.

4. You can dig a hole with your own hands, which will save the budget.

It will be possible to order services for arranging a well from a company that deals with this type of work.

Well

There are wells different type: "on the sand" and an artesian well. The type of such water supply directly depends on the depth and type of the soil layer from which water is directly taken.

Well "on the sand"

A well of this type got its name for the reason that the main water intake takes place in the upper layers of the sandy horizon. This layer of soil comes after the layer of loam, which acts as a natural filter for groundwater.

The depth of this well reaches 40-50 m. Depending on the region and location of the site, the depth may vary. Sometimes it happens that when drilling a well at a depth of 15 m, you can stumble upon groundwater. This source can also be used, which will have a significant advantage: sand will not get into the filter, respectively, it will not clog, since the structure of the soil layer will be pebbles. It will be possible to use such a well for 15-20 years, while a conventional sand well can only be operated for 5-7 years.

The well "on the sand" can be drilled independently. This is several times cheaper than ordering machine drilling. Also, do not forget that self-drilling is carried out empirically and can reveal the presence of water at a shallower depth.


Well "on sand" and artesian well "on limestone"

Artesian well

Water supply of a residential building from a well is considered very rational. The water supply of this source can reach 1500 liters. The drilling depth of an artesian well descends to a depth of about 135 m to the aquifer of limestone rocks. With such water extraction, the need for additional water intake equipment disappears. All this is due to the fact that the water is under high pressure and shoots out on its own.

Advantages of an artesian well:

  1. The possibility of getting into the source of groundwater and wastewater is excluded.
  2. The quality of water from such a depth is several times higher than the quality of water from upper layers soil.
  3. The service life of such a deep well reaches 50 years.

But along with such advantages, an artesian well has its drawbacks. The cost of drilling will be quite high due to the large depth. Any well of this type it will be necessary to register with the relevant authorities, since the water that is located at such a depth is considered a strategic reserve of the state.

Scheme of water supply to a private house

The scheme for supplying water to a country house implies the use of water intake pumping station or pump. Such systems are installed in the utility room of the house or in the well itself. The pumps are connected to a water source with a pipe and pump water into the accumulators. From them there is already a distribution of water supply in a private house.

As soon as someone in the house starts using the water and opens the faucet, the pressure in the water supply system will gradually drop. After it reaches a certain indicator, the pump will immediately turn on automatically on the relay in the pumping station, and its operation will continue until the pressure in the pipes returns to normal.


Scheme of water supply of a country house from a well

The water supply scheme consists of the following components:

  • well, well - a source of water;
  • pump station and pump;
  • hydraulic accumulator (necessary to stabilize the pressure in the system);
  • filters for water purification;
  • installation of water heating equipment in the house for supplying hot water;
  • collector system.

Installation of the water supply system of a country house can be done independently.

Advice. It is best to install water supply systems in the warm season. During this period, the water level is low and it will be difficult to make a mistake with finding the aquifer.

In spring or summer, the earth lends itself most to digging a trench to make a supply to a private house. To choose the right water intake equipment, you will need to first assess the soil, the depth of the well or well. The accumulator itself is considered to be quite expensive equipment, and many do not install it for this reason and prefer cheaper units with the same functionality.

well water project

Despite the fact that the well is very popular, in some regions they prefer to dig wells to provide a private house with water. All this is due to the fact that in the event of a shutdown electrical energy, it will be possible to draw water from such a source using any container.

Before digging a well, it is worth checking the quality of local water by taking samples from neighbors. The process of organizing a well begins with finding a place for it. It should be somewhere where there is an aquifer and not too deep. This can be done using old "grandfather" methods or modern devices.

The proven way is to observe early morning on the amount of dew in a certain place. But this method is distinguished by its long period of time. You will have to observe at least 6 months, and by today's standards, it will be irrational to use this method.

What to do if it's cold at home

In order to dig a well, you need to take into account a number of sanitary measures. For example, the water source should be at least 50 m away from a pit latrine or toilet, sewers or compost pits, and other sources of contamination. It is also worth considering the moment that the well should not be too close to the house, as a float can form underground, which will melt and erode the base of the structure, which can lead to a shift in the foundation.


example of the location of the well in the suburban area

After the place is determined, it will be necessary to order a house water supply project from the appropriate organization. You can make it yourself, but this will require certain engineering skills in construction and planning. The water supply project will be prepared for more than one day, and during this time you can safely dig a well.

How to dig a well

A well with reinforced concrete rings is considered more practical. Before starting work, it is necessary to level the surface of the earth in the place where it will be located. After that, a circle is drawn on the ground. Its diameter should be 15-20 cm larger than the diameter of the reinforced concrete ring itself.

Pits for the well are dug manually with a shovel according to a given diameter. You will need to continue digging until the ring fits into the hole and protrudes 10 cm out of it. As a rule, the height of such a ring is 90 cm, sometimes 100 cm is also found.

We place the first reinforced concrete ring in the pit. It will be necessary to install connecting brackets on its end (at least 3 pcs.). You need to continue digging further to the level of establishing the second ring.

Advice. To make it convenient to get rid of the soil that is pulled out of the pit, you need to build lifting mechanism with a rope and a container. All the earth will be placed in a container and rise to the top.

In the process of building a well, one thing must be taken into account. In order to make drainage from the well to the house, it is necessary to make a hole for pipes in the second reinforced concrete ring. The diameter of such a hole should be several centimeters larger than the diameter of the pipe itself.

It will be necessary to dig a well and install rings until water begins to flow into it. Most often, the whole process ends at 6-8 rings. You should pay attention to how many aquifers formed. There must be at least 3 of them.

After the source of water has already been found, you can proceed to the process of pumping out water and sand, which intensively stay in the pit. Then you need to go a little deeper by 50-60 cm, but the pump continues to pump out continuously. At this stage, the addition of water becomes quite intense.

As soon as the excavation of unnecessary soil is completed, the well must be left for a day so that it is filled with water. This is done in order to accurately determine its level in the structure. Only a day later the water level is determined. If it is more than 1 m or 1.5 m, then it is very good. After that, all the water is pumped out.

Large stones are laid at the bottom of the well and covered with a layer of rubble. The thickness of such a layer should be at least 50 cm. Crushed stone will act as a natural filter for water and ensure a small amount of sand enters the well. If everything is done correctly, then the well will be filled with 1.5 reinforced concrete rings.

Such rubble is placed at the bottom of the well

Connecting the pump to the well

The water supply of a private house directly depends on water intake devices. Only they can ensure the rise of water from the well to the pipe and leading it to the house itself. It is best to install a pumping station in the utility room of the cottage. For this reason, the trench for the pipes must be dug at a depth below the freezing level of the soil.

Today there is big choice pipes for conducting water. They may be:

  • plastic,
  • metal,
  • copper,
  • cast iron,
  • metal-plastic.

They differ from each other in their functionality and cost. It will be necessary to make a choice according to the financial budget. As a rule, for conducting water to a private house they use metal-plastic pipes. They have a certain amount of flexibility.

The pipe will need to be led into a previously made hole in the second reinforced concrete ring of the well. Then it must be bent and lowered to the level of the water in the source. A mesh inlet filter must be inserted inside the pipe.

The water supply pipe should not reach the bottom of the well by 30-50 cm. After that, it will be necessary to completely pump out all the water from the well again and drive a pin at the bottom. A pipe will be attached to it. The hole through which it was passed is sealed cement mortar. After all the actions, the well is closed using a special hatch. You can build a kind of flooring yourself from clay or concrete mortar. Just keep in mind that in the event of a breakdown, the lid must open.


Scheme of connecting a pumping station to a well

To do right choice the pumping station needs to know the exact characteristics of the well. The most common are pumps that pump water from a depth of 9 m and are able to raise it to a level of 40 m. It is recommended to use a self-priming pump, which already comes with an external injector. It will lift water from a depth of 45 m.

It is also worth thinking carefully about the fact that in the room where the pumping station will be located, the temperature in winter should not be lower than +2 C. The filter for deep cleaning is installed before the water enters the pump itself, and the fine filter after the pump. Then the process of connecting a pressure gauge, pressure switch and other devices takes place. After that, the water supply pipe is diverted to the collector and distributed according to the designed scheme. The pumping station must be connected to the power supply ( electrical panel).

Water supply of a country house from a well

The most important advantage of such a source of water as a well is that the water in it is several times cleaner than in a well and the quality is at its best. The well has a significant supply of water and can be used for the needs of a large family.

To choose the right place for the well, you must follow the same sanitary norms, as in the construction of a well. But there will be one difference. A well can be drilled near the house, since the water source will be at great depths, and there is no way to wash away the foundation of the building. The cost of drilling a well depends on how such work is carried out.

well drilling

To save money, you can drill a well yourself. For this, a drill column, a tripod and a mechanical lift are used. For drilling to a depth of 1.5 m, a pin drill is used. This will make it possible to remove the first layers of soil from the well. After that, a casing pipe with teeth is placed in the resulting hole.

The drilling process continues until an aquifer is identified. During drilling, you can skip the first aquifers and look for the desired option. After the desired aquifer has been found, a galvanized pipe is inserted into the casing pipe, which is equipped with a filter at the end. To provide good connection pipe sections, you need to use special couplings and coat the joints with sealant. Then, after performing such actions, the casing is removed from the well.

Hot water supply of a private house

When all the work on laying pipes for supplying water to a country house has already been carried out, it will be possible to carry out heating and water supply to a private house hot water. For these purposes, several methods are used.

One of them is the installation in the house double-circuit boiler. It can be gas or electric. One circuit heats water for use, and the second provides heating in the house.

A pipe with hot water supply is drawn from the pump. It is connected directly to the boiler. A pipe for supplying hot water will already come out of the boiler, which is connected to the collector. He already correctly distributes the water supply through the pipes that are in the house. Sometimes, in order to ensure uninterrupted heating inside the house, an additional pump is installed. This is done in order to ensure the circulation of water in heating pipes and incoming water from the boiler.


open and closed system private house water supply

There is another option - this is the use of a single-circuit boiler. Such a unit works only for domestic needs. It would be best to install a water heater in addition to it. You can also use an electric storage water heater.

Advice. For large cottages it will be rational to use a large number of flow heaters water.

Do-it-yourself water supply for a private house

Many land owners get confused, and as a result they find the wrong advice and materials. This is due to the mixing of similar concepts, such as a private house and a summer residence. In fact, buildings are absolutely for various purposes:

  • country house - summer house or a temporary building, not multi-storey, does not have special internal communications and complex system heating and plumbing, not intended for permanent residence. Often, a simple water supply is used to supply water to a room. submersible pump and superficial hose connection;
  • a private house is a permanent dwelling, it can be located in a village, outside the city or a cottage microdistrict. The building can have from one to four floors with basement, each of which must be provided with water and heating. Therefore, the water supply system will be much more complicated, and the usual water supply scheme for a private house from a well will not work.

Arrangement process autonomous water supply includes many stages, from planning to maintenance. In order for the water supply of a private house to be uninterrupted, of high quality and the system does not cause problems as a whole, it is necessary to think over every detail of the connection, develop an installation project and calculate the material.

Drawing up a preliminary connection structure should not be ignored, even if water is only led to the bathroom or kitchen. Having drawn up a detailed project, you can correctly calculate the materials and avoid problems during installation.

The water supply scheme should be developed taking into account:

  • number of points of water consumption;
  • estimated number of collectors;
  • boiler volume;
  • number of filters and pumps;
  • location and distance to each element of the water supply.

On the plan, it is necessary to mark the exact locations of consumers and appliances, as well as indicate the length of the pipeline through the premises of the dwelling.

The project should be drawn up on a single scale according to the measurements of the structure. And the more accurate it is, the faster you can determine how many materials you need to work.

There are two options for marking pipes:

  • consistent;
  • collector.

Features of a serial connection

Consistent the way is fine for a small house with 2-3 tenants due to its low power. The principle of operation is as follows: water enters the building through the water supply, inside the building, a tee is mounted near each water intake point, which drains the liquid to the end consumer.

If several taps are in use at the same time, then the water pressure to the far tee will be weaker than to the near one.

Collector connection type

The collector circuit allows water to be supplied to each point with the same pressure because the water pipes are diverted from the collector and branch out to all taps and mixers.

To lay lines in this way, more pipes will be required compared to serial connection, but it is much more practical and convenient.

Development of a scheme and connection plan

A typical private house water supply scheme consists of the following components:

  • water source, that is, wells;
  • pump station or pump. With its help, the internal pipeline is connected to a well or other source;
  • a hydraulic accumulator to control the readings of the pressure level in the system;
  • stopcock to stop the water supply in case of leakage or scheduled repairs;
  • for dividing the flow of incoming water between domestic and technical (watering the garden, Summer shower etc.) needs, the use of a tee is necessary;
  • filtration systems, which are equipped with a pipe that drains water into the house, to purify the liquid from impurities;
  • a tee that separates the water flow into cold and heated water.

Further, the pipe for cold water is immediately connected to the corresponding manifold, and for hot water, first to the water heater (boiler, boiler). After that, both systems branch out throughout the building. Most often they are conducted together, with the exception of utility rooms, where in hot water not necessary.

Plumbing in a private house: how to choose and install pipes

The quality of the materials from which the pipes are made has great importance for the water supply system, since the life of the structure depends on them.

There are several types of pipes

  • Copper. They are characterized by high resistance to ultraviolet, corrosion, and bacteria. Easily tolerate pressure drops and high temperatures. Their disadvantage is their high cost.
  • Metal-plastic. Their base is made of aluminum, and the edges and core are covered with a polyethylene ball. Inner shell prevents the appearance of rust and does not allow dirt and mineral deposits to stick, and the outer one protects the product from exposure to sunlight (when laying on the surface) and condensation. Such pipes can be deformed at high (95°C) and low (minus) temperatures, therefore, thermal insulation with a heating cable for outdoor systems is necessary.
  • Steel pipes- are strong but, despite it, are exposed to a rust. The installation process is laborious, since to connect the parts it is necessary to cut a thread on each element of the tube or fasten it by welding.
  • Polypropylene. They are most in demand because they are easy to install, do not oxidize, have reliable connections and can last over 50 years.

An important point is the selection of pipes by diameter, since the device and functioning of the water supply depends on it.

The dimensions (diameters) of pipes should be selected according to the length of the pipeline:

  • for a line longer than 30 m - 32 mm will do;
  • for pipelines of medium length (less than 30 m), 25 mm should be used;
  • for short wiring up to 10 m - 20 mm.

It is not difficult to conduct water supply to a private house using plastic pipes, but nevertheless, fasteners must be carried out according to a certain technology.

The following fittings are used as connecting elements-fittings: couplings, angles, tees, stopcocks, elbows and flange fasteners (it is better to prepare them in advance with a margin).

  1. Pipes are cut with special scissors (it will be convenient to use a KRAFTOOL pipe cutter) into pieces, taking into account the gaps for entering the fitting.
  2. Lay out on a hard surface in the order of assembly.
  3. To fix the parts with a felt-tip pen, the bonding points are marked.
  4. On polyfusion welding, a nozzle of the desired diameter is installed (under the pipe). The end is on her plastic pipe and fitting. The device warms up to 260-300 ° C (the heating time depends on the size of the tube and is indicated on the back of the welding box). Then both ends are removed and fixed at the same time. In this position, the pipe and fitting are held for 15-20 seconds until completely solidified.

To breed pipes in the premises begin from the place of water intake. First, a ball valve is placed between the mixer and the pipe, it makes it possible to shut off the water in case an accident occurs or repairs are needed. After that, the line is led to the collector.

Divide pipelines according to certain rules.

  • When installing pipes (to make them easier to repair), it is necessary to retreat 20-25 mm from the walls.
  • Installation of drainage taps is carried out with a slight inclination in the direction of the subsequent mixer or tap.
  • Pipes for water supply are attached to the walls with clips, which are attached to all corner fixtures, in other areas - the gap between them is allowed from 1.5 to 2 meters.
  • To combine polypropylene pipes at an angle, Unidelta or other HDPE fittings and tees with identical diameters are used.

Source for water supply: which one to prefer

The water supply scheme of a private house can be implemented in several ways:

  • From the central highway;
  • From the well.

Connection to the central water supply requires permission from the relevant authority, and this is not always possible for private houses. If you decide to use this option, please note that the pressure in the central water supply has already been determined initially, and when using several devices at the same time, the water pressure in the far one will be lower than in the closer one. Therefore, try to place consumers as compactly as possible.

The well makes it possible to provide the plot with water without the official permission of the state services, but this option is only suitable for seasonal use, therefore it is not suitable for dwellings with permanent residence.

The water supply system of a private house from a well allows you to use water best quality than a well. But to lift it, you need good pressure, so you will have to use more powerful equipment, for example, a deep electric pump OPTIMA (Optima) 4SDm 3/18 1.5kW pumps liquid from great content sand, filtering it out without jeopardizing the unit.

The water supply system of a private house: how to organize

Basically, pumping stations are used for arranging water supply. They are designed to pump water from a source directly into a system or tank. Additional water purification filters are also used.

The system includes:

  • pumps;
  • storage tanks;
  • hydraulic accumulators;
  • various water heaters (boilers, boilers, heating elements).

Place the complex closer to consumers, in the basement or basement. A pipe coming from the water intake is brought to it, with a fitting made of bronze or brass, with a diameter of 32 mm. Next, the drain drain and the check valve are connected in turn.

Then all the required components are connected using a connection, which is popularly called "American".

  1. A ball valve is connected to open / close the water supply.
  2. Next, a coarse filter is connected to remove coarse particles. Protects against rust and sand.
  3. After that, the pumping station system is equipped with a hydraulic tank or a hydraulic accumulator, including a pressure switch. But if the electric pump itself is in the well, and the special equipment is inside the building, you need to install the relay on the top of the pipe, and the tank on the bottom.
  4. Then an automation sensor is mounted to protect the pump from running dry and timely shutdown.
  5. The process ends with the installation of a fine (soft) filter.

Selection of a hydraulic accumulator for a pumping station

The hydraulic tank is a hermetic container with two sections. One holds water and the other holds air. With its help, the pressure in the system is continuously maintained, and, if necessary, the operation of the pump is regulated.

It is necessary to choose a container model in accordance with the number of residents and daily water consumption. Its volume can be from 25 to 500 liters. For example, Wester WAV 200 Top is designed for 200 liters of liquid, and Unipress is designed for 80 liters.

Outcome

Water treatment in country house do-it-yourself is quite possible without outside help and you don't have to hire professionals to do it. Follow the advice of experts, and there will be no problems during installation.

If you decide to entrust the work construction company, the recommendations of experts will help you control the actions of installers, independently draw up a water supply scheme for a private house and participate in the development of the project. As a result, this will help to avoid shortcomings in the work and related problems in the future.
