How Dewatering Well Systems Work

Pre-drainage dewatering systems like deep well systems are versatile water pumping systems that can pump low to high volumes of groundwater for different kinds of applications. Deep welling is a method that is best suited for homogeneous aquifers extending well below the deepest part of an excavation. Typical deep well systems consist of a single or several individual wells, each with its own submersible pump placed at the bottom. They are used for confined aquifers and water tables and are used to lower the water table by a hundred feet or more on one lift, without the need for staging.

If you require a dewatering well system for your project, choose drilling companies that offer expertise and innovative turn-key solutions for your groundwater control needs. Find a professional service that offers comprehensive products and services and have expertise in all kinds of drilling and construction projects, ranging from constructing retaining walls and bridge piers to excavating deep wells, and more. The best drilling companies are those with the capacity to design, drill, install, and maintain your dewatering system as needed.

There are many advantages to installing dewatering systems. They give you the ability to penetrate different strata that are impervious to wellpoint systems. Deep well systems can also be installed up to 100 feet deep or even deeper in one stage. Most importantly, these systems can pump tens to thousands of gallons of groundwater per minute, per well, when using multiple well systems. Moreover, they can still be effective even when placed outside of a jobsite work area.

Deep well dewatering systems are designed for the purpose of pumping out large volumes of ground water. They are also used when the depth of excavation required are simply impossible to achieve using other dewatering or deep welling methods.
