I am trying to get a better well for my new home. There is an existing dug well on the site, that produces very little water during the summer. I have tried to dig a well, with my backhoe, about 20 feet from the river front on my property. About 4 feet down in very coarse sand and some rocks about fist size the water began to poor in and flooded the hole before I could dig any deeper.
I am wondering if I could drive or lay a couple of well points there and use that as my source of water? Also I would like to know how far to bury the water line to get below the frost line here in Northern New Hampshire, I have been told any where from 18 inches to 4 feet.
Any information will be appreciated.
Thanks TomKat
