would like some advice from people who has driven sandpoint water well. I have drilled down twenty ft. with auger type post hole digger, expect to hit water at 25 or thirty ft. I know pump wont lift water over 22 ft without jet. Is there a jet system that will fit into 1 & 1/4 in pipe? Thanks for any ideas.

That driving point is for soft sandy ground where you hit water at about 5 ft to 18 ft? if your already at 20 ft. get or make you a punch bucket that will fit your casing inside its a peace of pipe small enough to fit inside your casing screen and tail peace has metal ball in bottom to seal in cuttings use bentonite clay well seal or the brand you get locally mix with water? we finished up well like this 50 ft with 4 in pvc casing and screen a few monts ago?

I'm more interested in how you dug your hole. Can you provide details?

You can get deep well kits that fit 2" drive pipe. It doesn't drive much harder than 1 1/4" and can give a lot more water and you are safe if you have to go deeper. Another thought is if you are using an electrical pump you can dig a pit lined with cement blocks, 8 to 10' deep at the well site and put the pump down in the pit. Prevents freezing and reduces the distance to water.
I hope this is of help.

you can go down 500 ft. and if water comes up within 25 ft./ of ground level you can pump with a shallow well system you can hit water at 30 ft. and if the water only comes up say 2 ft. than you have to use a deep well system.
