Pump Technician Day 2




We started the day by helping someone whose well had dried up and the pump was caked in mud. We took the pump out using the boom and a claw and pipe attachment and cleaned it up and inserted it about 12 feet where he was able to take a shower for the first time since Friday.





The second project of the day was a continuation where two new cisterns are being installed. I got to climb down the cisterns and knock out cement with a chisel to expose the pipes. 





I connected the conduit to the control box where the electrical cords will go through.


We use a sealant called Blue Monster which I applied to connect pipes where water will flow through.
