How to conduct water in a country house
To better understand how to conduct plumbing, a diagram must be drawn up. The scheme includes an indication of the location of the water supply outside and inside the cottage. The scheme is needed for the following reasons:
- It allows you to calculate the amount of material;
- The scheme allows you to prevent various errors and shortcomings that can adversely affect the operation of the water supply system;
- It is easier to do the work with your own hands.
The scheme must also be drawn up if you ordered the installation of a turnkey system. It is necessary for underground laying. The device, in this case, is easier to maintain and repair.
The scheme includes the following components:
- Pump. It is important to choose it correctly. A submersible device for a well is suitable for giving, where no more than 1-2 people live. When using several taps at the same time, pressure drops and poor-quality water supply are possible. The submersible device is quite popular due to its advantages: excellent performance, work at great depths, noiselessness, economy;
- Hydraulic accumulator. A hydraulic accumulator is required for water supply in the country for the reason that it allows you to protect the structure from water hammer and stabilizes pressure. In addition, the device has a tank in which water accumulates. In case of violations of the water supply in the country, thus, the water supply will be ensured;
- Drain valve. The device is necessary for a deep and medium well for draining water during canning. If the depth of the well is less than 8 meters, the drain valve may not be used;
- Pressure switch. It is necessary to stabilize the pressure. The relay allows you to reduce or increase the pressure. In case of very high pressure, the relay turns off the pumping device. If the pressure is low, then the relay pumps fluid.
If you decide to do the installation yourself, and not to order turnkey work, you need to know some rules. In particular, the water supply from the well is mounted at a slope. The slope is towards the drain valve. This nuance allows, if necessary, to quickly drain the liquid from the system. Inside the cottage, the water supply is also installed at a slope to the pipe, which is a drain.
The design of the well for water supply can be made in two versions:
- Summer. In this case, it is possible to operate the water supply only at warm temperatures;
- Winter. In this case, the water supply in the country can work all year round.
Both summer and winter versions are autonomous. Their operation depends on electricity.
Summer construction from a well in the country can be:
Constant. In this case, the water supply is laid in the ground. It has water taps that go outside.
The installation depth of such a water supply system is very small. Such a water supply can be laid on any part of the cottage, it is easy to install.
Among the disadvantages of such water supply, one can note the difficulty with installing a water supply system, due to the fact that it must be laid with a slope. Otherwise, there is a danger of pipe rupture;
Collapsible. Such a water supply system is usually reinforced, its adapters are made of plastic or galvanized.
Installation can be carried out at any warm time. With the onset of winter, the structure is simply removed for storage.
The water supply system for the summer period can be mounted by hand. It's pretty easy to install.
If the water supply structure from the well is planned to be used in the winter, it is mounted exclusively according to a permanent scheme.
The main thing for such a water supply is to insulate it. You can handle this with your own hands.
It will protect the water supply system not only from low temperatures, but also from external influences and damage.
The laying of the water supply is carried out below the freezing level of the ground. This level depends on the climatic features of the area.
