How to Handle a Gaseous Well
In some areas well water contains gases which must be
allowed to escape before the water is used. This can be
done as shown in Figure 9.
A good way of delivering gas-free water is to suspend
a pipe, closed at the bottom and open at the top, sur-
rounding the suction pipe. Since the gases rise in the
well casing, the water sucked down through the pipe
and into the suction pipe is free of gas. This type of
well must be vented to the outside of any enclosure.
