34 viewsWater Valve: The electric water valve is controlled by 2 floats which control the 'shut' and 'open' valve positions. (19-Aug-04)dozer

32 viewsA close up of some of the raw magnesium used as a filtration unit. The tanks are basically filled with granules and the water is forced through the granules. (19-Aug-04)dozer

31 viewsI like stainless steel tanks which come in various sizes and shapes. For a single family house I would recommend storage size of 1000 or more liters. The cheaper plastic type (which you can see in the lower right of this picture) are not recommended. They supposedly are harder to clean and have problems with algae growth. I recently priced an 1600 liter stainless steel tank for 8500 Baht including delivery. (21-Apr-04)dozer

30 viewsHere is another idea for a water tower This one is built on a bathroom, but you could also do a storage room underneath. The tower sets on top at a height of about 5 meters. The tank has about a 2000 liter capacity. (11-May-04)dozer

29 viewsIf you have a problem like this, the water in the storage tank will not be clear, even if it is filtered. Here is a shot of cloudy water in the tank before fixing the well. (06-Jul-04)dozer

29 viewsThe valve is mounted on top of the water tank. The electric is shielded in yellow conduit. (06-Jul-04)dozer

29 viewsFiltration: This filtration system has three units which are made of stainless steel. Each unit runs the raw water through a different filtration agent; carbon, magnesium and an ionizer. (09-Jul-04)dozer

29 viewsOne other thing to note. A well should not be dug within a meter of the house. This shot shows a well within about 40 centimeters from a house and also you can see the gaping holes around the well due to settling. The settling around the well can further cause a lot of problems for the house structure, for example wall and flooring cracks. (28-Jul-04)dozer

29 viewsHere is a shot in the tank after the problem was fixed. Notice how clear the water is now. (19-Aug-04) dozer

28 viewsDeep Water Well: A rig at work drilling a deep water well. (03-Apr-04)dozer

28 viewsWhen water is reached a pump is utilized so that digging can continue down another 1 or 2 meters until the water is sufficient to use all year around. (29-May-04)dozer

28 viewsHere is a water tank with no tower, which is how I did it in the cool thai house. The downside to not having a tower is that an extra pump is needed to drive water into the house. (02-Jul-04)dozer
